How are the tokens generated in the browser for REST API?

Hello!

I am using this addon - Splunk Add-on for Microsoft Cloud Services.

I checked the Network tab and I saw the REST API which is being called. The scenario is that I need to programmatically add/remove the storage accounts (we have a lot) via this addon.

If I extract the values for the following from the browser session and try it in Postman, it works properly -
1. session_id_8000
2. splunkweb_csrf_token_8000
3. splunkd_8000
4. X-Splunk-Form-Key

If I try to get these values by following the instructions over here - https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/StreamApp/7.1.3/DeployStreamApp/SplunkAppforStreamRESTAPI
, it doesn't work and I get Authentication error.

Any idea how can I get the above tokens using Postman?

Also, how can I import modules in Python which are written as part of this addon?

Thanks!
