Overview
OpenTV Platform supports guest (anonymous) sign-in. If enabled, this allows a user to sign in without having to provide a username and password or authenticating in another way.
Guest sign-in can be configured to only allow access from a list of allowed countries.
Once signed in to the guest account, the client must not:
-
Display a consent message
-
Do any kind of personalisation
-
Create or use bookmarks or favourites
-
Do any kind of tracking for advertising purposes
Prerequisites
Guest sign-in must have been enabled by NAGRAVISION before clients can start using this sign-in method. Check with your NAGRAVISION representative.

Response
A successful request returns an HTTP 200 status. The response contains the access and refresh tokens.

If the guest account does not exist, the request returns an HTTP 404 status.
