But, as per documentation I should receive the

ckWebAuthToken instead of ckSession

Could you please help me?

Looks like documenttion is incorrect or i do something wrong...

How to get the ckWebAuthToken or how to use this ckSession for requesting the web services?

From my Testing, ckSession itself is ckWebAuthToken Encode and append the ckSession string that you received to future requests. To URL encode the ckSession string, replace '+' with '%2B', '/' with '%2F', and '=' with '%3D'. For example, send a request to get the current user by appending the ckWebAuthToken string.
