Solution 1

First of all read here: http://docs.rackspace.com/auth/api/v2.0/auth-client-devguide/content/QuickStart-000.html[^]
The things you can understand immediately (and you can see it even in your sample) that the type should be POST and never GET!
The samples in the link use curl, so some hints...
-d in curl is data
-H in curl is header

$.ajax({
url: "https://identity.api.rackspacecloud.com/v1.0/tokens",
beforeSend: function (xhr) {
xhr.setRequestHeader("Content-Type: application/json");
},
type: 'POST',
dataType: 'json',
accept:'application/json',

// processData: true,
data: '{ "auth": { "RAX-KSKEY:apiKeyCredentials": { username: "abc", apiKey: "aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" } } }',
success: function (response) {
alert(JSON.stringify(response));
},
error: function () {
alert("Cannot get data");
}
});

If you know please suggest me i am doing this but not getting success
