Need the secret to the REST API login method using username/password.

Tried both GET and POST, set "Make REST API calls with read access" to 'grant' for the user, tried with both an Admin user and a basic user... I can execute API calls in a browser after I log in,...

Hi Anthony,

Here is a link to the REST documentation for the authentication/sessions/login call:

http://lithosphere.lithium.com/t5/rest-api/bd-p/developers-rest-api?leaf-id=AuthenticationManager.sessions.login#AuthenticationManager.sessions.login

It looks like you are using username.login instead of user.login and username.password instead of user.password -- I think that may be your issue.

Bah. Typo in my post. Sorry about that - I'm actually using user. not username. Too many years of typing username/password :/

One thing I haven't tried is also passing the authentication method. I'll see if i can find the values for that in the javadocs and give that a whirl.

I'll update my post above as well to fix that.
