REST API connection with api keys

Joris van den Boogaard

Hi all,

 

I need to extract data from a data source using the REST API connection.

 

I have a request URI. However, this URI always generates an API key that is unique. This is like a signature that is generated on the fly. (e.g. api_key=wn8k59pgkk99hcv6uxsfhg65u7s3jsujtvmyzqa4&sig=e751e13ef3b102e470764085a853e35090de6f3710b1deca2677a3fc1f321eb5). 

Is it possible to cope with these keys in the Board REST API functionality? Does anybody have an example?

 

Thanks and kind regards,

 

Joris

Hi Joris,

 

I am interested in this as well. As far as I've been able to investigate, having a dynamically changing URI in BOARD is not possible which can be troublesome for the above that you mention, as well as needing to build queries that are more generalised (eg. you can't pass through specific dates or filters).

 

Cheers,

Stephen
