Hi,

I’m trying out the new user management feature. I’ve done the followings

1. Start a daml sandbox
2. Start a JSON API service
3. Configured Auth0 to create admin claim token (the one with admin : true)
4. Created some users on the daml sandbox

Does anyone know that how to create token for the user or what the user token should look like? I assume this is a token in different format, i.e. no longer need to have actAs and readAs.

You can find the description of the new token format in the [docs](https://docs.daml.com/app-dev/authorization.html#user-access-tokens). Note that it’s not just `actAs` and `readAs` claims that have disappeared. The admin claim is also gone. For bootstrapping you get a user called `participant_admin` which has an admin claim so you can use the token for that user to create other users.
