How do I get an authentication token for a WorkDocsClient on the AWS WorkDocs API?

I'm currently working on a project using the AWS WorkDocs API and php.

For some functions, it's necessary to have an authentication token.

For example, the DescribeRootFolders service :

I've a key and a secretKey to connect to the API via the WorkDocsClient class but I would like to know how I can get an authentication token ?

Of course, I saw that there was a solution to get an authentication token via the creation of an application but I dare to hope that there is another way to do it ?

    Currently there is no capability to generate access tokens via the SDK.
    This may change in the future if full OAuth protocol compliance is introduced.
