    I see in your post you are referring to the nbwebsvc, this is created during initial installation of the master. It should already be there otherwise you'd be having issues with the NBU Web Management console service.

    The way I did it was

    Create local user.

    Add them to the relevant role in RBAC via webui using admin account or create a custom role.

    Generated a token for them.

Hi Azhar!

then, I would say, the procedure could be firstly to create the linux user, secondly add the user to sudoers file and finally to create API key via web gui. Is it right?
