# pingcli pingfederate oauth access-token-managers template

Generate an access token manager JSON template

## Synopsis

Generate a JSON skeleton template for access token manager create or replace bodies

```
pingcli pingfederate oauth access-token-managers template [flags]
```

## Examples

```
  # Generate a template and save to a file
  pingcli pingfederate oauth access-token-managers template > body.json

  # Edit the template, then create the access token manager
