Not sure what your experience level is but you probably can do this using the API. See the documentation.

The way I do this is to first build the requests in Postman and when they work move them to workbench in HTTPCallers.

@nag​ ​ , would you happen to have an example workspace that shows how to authenticate with TID in order to get the access token to be used with the API calls? I'm having trouble getting the authentication. I have my consumer key and consumer secret. I am successful in generating calls after I manually get the token, but I would like to authenticate without user interaction (manually logging in).
