        // In order to sign your HTTP requests, you have to add 2 headers to the HTTP request: Digest: the digest of the request payload and Signature: the actual signature of the request.

        // POST /xs2a/customer-access-tokens HTTP/1.1
        // Host: api.ibanity.com
        // Content-Type: application/json
        // Digest: SHA-512=z4PhNX7vuL3xVChQ1m2AB9Yg5AULVxXcg/SpIdNs6c5H0NE8XYXysP+DGNKHfuwvY7kxvUdBeoGlODJ6+SfaPg==
        // Ibanity-Idempotency-Key: 61f02718-eeee-46e1-b5eb-e8fd6e799c2d
        // Signature: keyId="62f02718-eeee-46e1-b5eb-e8fd6e799c2e",created=1599659223,algorithm="hs2019",headers="(request-target) host digest (created) ibanity-idempotency-key",signature="SjWJWbWN7i0...zsbM="
        //
        // {"data":{"type":"customerAccessToken", "attributes":{"applicationCustomerReference":"15874569"}}}

        // The payload (body) of the above HTTP request is the JSON.
        // Build the JSON above.
        // Use this online tool to generate code from sample JSON:
        // Generate Code to Create JSON
        JsonObject json = new JsonObject();
        json.updateString("data.type", "customerAccessToken");
        json.updateString("data.attributes.applicationCustomerReference", "15874569");

        String payload = json.emit();
        System.out.println("payload = " + payload);

        // Step 1: Build the (created) virtual header

        DateTime dtNow = new DateTime();
        dtNow.setFromCurrentSystemTime();
        String created = dtNow.getAsUnixTimeStr(false);
        System.out.println("created = " + created);

        // Step 2: Build the Digest header
        Crypt2 crypt = new Crypt2();
        crypt.setHashAlgorithm("sha512");

        // Step 3: Build the (request target) virtual header

        // In order to build the signature you will need a virtual header named (request-target) (the parentheses are important).
        // The (request-target) is the string concatenation of the HTTP method (in lowercase) with the path and query parameters.
        String request_target = "post /xs2a/customer-access-tokens";

        // Step 4: Build the signing string

        // The signing string is the concatenation of the signed header names (in lowercase) and values separated by a LF.

        // You must always sign the following headers: (request-target), host, (created), digest.
        // If used, you must also sign the authorization header and any ibanity-* headers, such as ibanity-idempotency-key.

        String idempotencyKey = crypt.generateUuid();
        sbSigningString.append(idempotencyKey);

        // Step 5: Build the signed headers list

        // To allow Ibanity to check the signed headers, you must provide a list of the header names. They should be lowercase and in the same order used to create the signing string.
        String signed_headers_list = "(request-target) host digest (created) ibanity-idempotency-key";

        // Step 6: Build the Signature header

        // This is where the real signing happens. The signature header is a combination of several sub-headers -
        //
        //     keyId: the identifier for the application's signature certificate, obtained from the Developer Portal
        //     algorithm: the digital signature algorithm used to generate the signature (must be hs2019)
        //     headers: The list of HTTP headers created in step 5
        //     signature: the Base64-encoded digital signature of the signing string created in step 4.
