Looks like this went down during the weekend.

It was working last week.

From postman:

13:36:32.300

▶POST https://sandboxdnac.cisco.com/dna/system/api/v1/auth/token

Error: connect ETIMEDOUT 64.103.37.34:443

You can also use https://sandboxdnac2.cisco.com - I believe there was/is some maintenance being had today across a few different pages.

Hope this helps.

I have the same problem.  Both https://sandboxdnac2.cisco.com/ and https://sandboxdnac.cisco.com webpages open up.  No Problem.
But the apiKey URL on both cases give 404 not found error:
https://sandboxdnac2.cisco.com/dna/system/api/v1/auth/token

@tperiasa I tested both URL to both sandbox's at 6:34 AM Friday, August 5, 2022 Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). Both pages load for me. These are both always-on sandboxes, as such sometimes they go offline due to abuse or over use. Please try these again, if your issue continues, you can raise a ticket with our team HERE  to help you troubleshoot.

Hope this helps.

Thanks a lot. Yes it is working now.  Must be overuse or abuse as you said.

DNA Center does not response to GET method. Please try POST: 

curl -X POST -H "authorization: Basic ZGV2bmV0dXNlcjpDaXNjbzEyMyE=" -H "content-type: application/json" "https://sandboxdnac2.cisco.com/dna/system/api/v1/auth/token"

I have the same problem

Please disregard. My problem was that I wasn't getting a token in though Postman. I just had to disable the SSL certificate verification for my request. More info at https://developer.cisco.com/docs/dna-center/#!getting-started/installing-postman
