Token generation in REST API WCS

How the WCToken can be generated without invoking either the login/guest services in REST API?

We can use the WCToken generated form either login/guest and calling various other webservices to retrieve data, how can we call other services without calling login/guest?

I have found from my observation like, WCToken is generated based on the userId along with 2 more tokens(activitytokenid, activitytokenSignature). Is this WCToken stored in any database tables?

This isn't possible without customization.

You can call REST services without calling login or guest first. Your request will be handled as a generic user.

The data within the token is an encrypted version of what is stored in the CTXMGT table.
