Authenticating with the Server
Problem
Your PlanetPress Connect Server is configured to use server security, and you want to
authenticate with the server to obtain the correct access to make future requests.
Solution
The solution is to create a request using the following URI and method type to authenticate with
the server via the Authentication REST service:
Authenticate/Login to Server
/rest/serverengine/authentication/login
POST
Example
HTML5
auth-login-server.html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>Authenticate/Login to Server Example</title>
<script src="../../common/lib/js/jquery-
1.11.3.min.js"></script>
<script src="../../common/js/common.js"></script>
<script src="js/auth-login-server.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="../../common/css/styles.css">
</head>
<body>
<h2>Authentication Service - Authenticate/Login to Server
