    API Authentication

    Glasswall Halo supports two types of authentication: Basic and Bearer authentication. Before making any request, you must authenticate using the appropriate scheme based on your configuration.

    Basic

    If your system is configured with Basic authentication, you need to obtain an Organisation ID and token from the system administrator. Combine these values in the format <OrganisationId>:<Token> and then base64 encode them. The resulting encoded value should be included in the request header as follows:

    Authorization: Basic ZGVtbzpwQDU1dzByZA==
    

    Bearer

    For Bearer authentication, you will require a Bearer token obtained from your identity provider. Once you have obtained the token, include it in the request header as follows:

    Authorization: Bearer ZGVtbzpwQDU1dzByZA==
    

    Note: Please ensure that you use the appropriate authentication method as per your system's configuration. Using the correct authentication ensures successful access to the Glasswall Halo API and prevents any authorization issues.
