Authentication

About Authentication

To request for a user token, a POST call to the APM Web API URL with the following URL extension and body must be used. After the Meridium token is retrieved, it is passed as the value to the header key MeridiumToken.

POST

Returns a SessionDTO object. From this DTO, sessionId, ; (semicolon), and timezoneId are concatenated to produce a Meridium Token value.

You must provide a request header, meridiumtoken, with this value on every subsequent API call.

The header content-type with value application/json is the only other header required by the application.
