# VidiCore Get Token

This node requests an access token from the configured VidiCore authentication service.

The token is used internally by Helmut for following VidiCore requests. It is **not exposed as a node result**, which means it cannot be retrieved via `{node.result.?}` or `{stream.last_result}`.
