You can use the response of another request to fill any information.

In the field where you want to use the response data press ctrlspace, then search for Response → Body Attribute A red dynamic variable will appear, click on it to open edition modal

• In the dropdown Request pick your authentication request
• In the Filter field, use a JSONPath like $ to select the entire body, or a $.accessToken if the token is inside a JSON object
• With the dropdown Tigger Behavior you can tune what will do a call on your authentication request
• Press the Done button

And voilà, you have transmitted a value between a parent/child (requirement/usage) request
