Correct cookie for screen scraping?

Since not everything is available via the API, I'd like to use the web frontend as a workaround. (e.g. message revisions)

 

However, we use SSO and we have only a few local Lithium "generic" users for API access.

 

Can the REST API auth key be used to download pages from the web frontend? What cookie should be set to what value?

 

Thanks!

    There is currently no way to use a REST API session key to sign into the Lithium Web UI as a user (or make a request to a web UI page as a user).
