    RN if your instance is OS Cloud hosted, you will have to use a hard-coded "Personal Access Token" provided by the OneStream IdentityServer - see page 59 of Identity_and_Access_Management_Guide.pdf

    It appears the design intent of the REST API is automation of processes run by a machine account.  

    REST API comes in two flavors(versions): 5.2.0 and 7.2.0.  5.2.0 is send a request and wait for it to complete, Get.  7.2.0 is more fire and forget, though the docs are not clear when this (asynchronous) topology is used.  I think we can assume DM can be called Asynchronously using Post.
