To get an access token for a given user using `@kinde/management-api-js` v0.7.1, you will need to follow these steps: 1. *Install the SDK*: Ensure you have the `@kinde/management-api-js` package installed in your project. ``` npm install @kinde/management-api-js ``` 2. *Configure the SDK*: Set up the SDK with your Kinde domain, client ID, and client secret. ``` const { Configuration, GrantType, UsersApi, createKindeServerClient } = require('@kinde-oss/kinde-management-api-js'); const kindeApiClient = createKindeServerClient(GrantType.CLIENT_CREDENTIALS, { authDomain: "https://<your_kinde_subdomain>.", clientId: "<your_kinde_client_id>", clientSecret: "<your_kinde_client_secret>", audience: "https://<your_kinde_subdomain>.", }); ``` 3. *Get the Access Token*: Use the configured client to get an access token. ``` const getAccessToken = async () => { try { const token = await kindeApiClient.getToken(); return token; } catch (err) { console.error('Error getting access token:', err); } }; ``` 4. *Retrieve User Information*: Use the access token to call the Kinde Management API and retrieve user information. ``` const getUserInfo = async (email) => { const token = await getAccessToken(); const config = new Configuration({ basePath: "https://<your_kinde_subdomain>.", accessToken: token, headers: { Accept: "application/json" } }); const apiInstance = new UsersApi(config); try { const users = await apiInstance.getUsers({ email }); console.log(users); } catch (err) { console.error('Error retrieving user information:', err); } }; getUserInfo(''); ``` This code will help you get an access token and retrieve information for the user with the email ``.

I created a user using:

import { Users, init } from "@kinde/management-api-js";

init();

const createUserResult = await Users.createUser({
      requestBody: {
        identities: [
          {
            type: "email",
            details: {
              email,
            },
          },
        ],
      },
    });
How can I get an access token for this user?
