AUTHENTICATION TYPE

Currently, we have 3 types of authentication: 

• User Only: using User Name and Password to authenticate the API
• IP Address Only: using a list of IP addresses to authenticate the API (each IP address is separated by ',' characters, e.g.: 192.168.1.1,192.168.1.2,...)
   
• User & IP Adress: using all User Name/Password and a list of IP addresses to authenticate the API

Get Authorization code:

When using the User type to authenticate the API, we need to get an authorization code by clicking on the button to copy the token to the clipboard:

Using Authorization code:

Add the authorization code to The HTTP Authorization header: Authorization: Basic <Authorization code>

Example:

Authorization: Basic YWxhZGRpbjpvcGVuc2VzYW1l

or

Authorization: WxhZGRpbjpvcGVuc2VzYW1l
