REST API Authentication

Send a POST call to /api/v1/authenticate for authentication. Make sure to provide your credentials in the body of the request:

ItemDescription
Method and LinkPOST host:port/tribefire-services/api/v1/authenticate
Body{ "user": "cortex", "password": "cortex" }
HeadersContent-Type: application/json

You have to include the session ID in every REST call. You can include it in the following:

  • URL parameter: sessionId=yourSessionId
  • header parameter: gm-session-id

You cannot include the session ID in the body of the request!

If you are not logged in (there is no valid session) and you paste a GET call in your browser, you will be redirected to a login screen. After logging in, you will see the result of your GET call.

The redirect does not happen for the /api/v1/authenticate call.
