For an ID to work below criteria should be met:

ID needs to be entered in the correct Datastream format – in capitals starting with a Z (for example ZABC123).
Access to DSWS requires permission to be added to the ID. If you don't have it you would need to contact your account team.

Thank you. Now I received a token, but it seems to be way too long.

How long is the token supposed to be ?
