Credentials
Cloud Director Appliance root credentialsbasic

Use the local appliance root account on your VMware Cloud Director appliance. The Cloud Director Appliance API docs state that for Basic auth, the root user must be used; no Broadcom developer credential is issued for this API. See Cloud Director Appliance API and authenticate against your appliance's own account store.

Cloud Director Appliance bearer session tokenbearer

Create a session token from the appliance's sessions API on your own VMware Cloud Director appliance, then send it as a Bearer token. The docs say you can use a Bearer token retrieved from the sessions API; the appliance listens on port 5480. See Cloud Director Appliance API.
