// Create the Request
const url = host + path;
const queryParams = {"toProductId": "dcd"}
const requestBody = {}

    console.log(response);
});

Ruby

# Fetch a transferToken

# Form the URL
urlstr = File.join("https://", "apis.ebsco.com", "/medsapi-dynamed/api/v1/user/transfer-token")

params = { :toProductId => "dcd"  }

# Create the HTTP object
http = Net::HTTP.new(url.host, url.port)
http.use_ssl = true
http.verify_mode = OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE

# Create the request
request = Net::HTTP::Post.new(url)
request["Authorization"] = "Bearer Token"
