Working with authenticated APIs

You would need to have a registered user, with which you can generate a authentication token. Follow the following steps to generate a token (You can download Postman client to make the following POST calls) Reference: TokenAuthentication API docs

  • Make a POST call to /api/sign-up with 4 form-data body objects: email, password, firstname, lastname. You should get "Successfully registered" response with 201 status code.
  • Make a POST call to /api/sign-in with 2 form-data body objects: username (which is your email Id you used for sign up), password. You will get a token in JSON response, store it somewhere.
  • For making any subsequent request, use the above token by sending it as an "Authorization HTTP Header", eg: Authorization: Token <your token>
