Is the DSS REST API ValidateToken method implemented and how do you invoke it?

The DSS REST API Reference Tree gives details for the validate token operation - https://hosted.datascopeapi.reuters.com/RestApi.Help/Context/Operation?ctx=Authentication&opn=ValidateToken
I can't get this to work, having tried GET, as per the above, and also trying to formulate a POST. Details of both below. All I can manage is a "404:Not Found" response with message "No HTTP resource was found that matches the request URI 'https://hosted.datascopeapi.reuters.com/RestApi/v1/Authentication/ValidateToken'."
Can anyone offer any help as to how to do this, or whether it's actually implemented.
Thanks in advance
James

Hi @james.cooper,
The ValidateToken works with the following method.
GET https://hosted.datascopeapi.reuters.com/RestApi/v1/Authentication/ValidateToken(Token='<token string to be validated>')
Also, below is the sample of result
{
"@odata.context": "https://hosted.datascopeapi.reuters.com/RestApi/v1/$metadata#ThomsonReuters.Dss.Api.Authentication.ValidateTokenResult",
"IsValid": true,
"Expires": "2017-03-31T03:05:34.427Z"

Hi @james.cooper,
Just want to confirm if the RequestToken POST command works for you?
