      The Zesty.io Auth API is used to authenticate users with the platform.
      It returns a session token that grants access to the Instances API,
      Accounts API, and Media API. User authentication is done by providing
      an email and password combination, which issues a short-lived 30-minute
      session token. Also supports Microsoft SSO, Okta SSO, and Azure SSO.
