Using the App API

In order to use the app as an API, you will need to configure requests to the API as so:

• Configure your request with Basic Auth. Set the username to be the same as API_USER and password as the API_KEY (API_USER and API_KEY are environment variables that should be set for the application)
• Check the endpoint you are calling is an action that is create, show or update
• Check you are setting the following request headers:
  • Content-Type = application/json
  • Action = application/json N.B. If you use */* instead, the request won’t be recognised as an API request`

Currently only the logs controller is configured to accept and authenticate API requests, when the above API environment variables are set.
