10.14.9.4 API key
Only the administrator can create an API key. An API key can be created for any user
in the web client's workspace.
The web server offers the option for an application programming interface JSON API.
Any program can access and edit the easyE4 data from this interface, for example
the program of an enterprise software. easySoft 8 is not required. The API can be
used in all high-level languages that provide a library for HTTP GetRequests, for
example Java Script, Python, VBa, C++.
A software that wants to access the application programming interface can authen-
ticate itself in two different ways:
1. With the web client's user name and password
<User name web client>:<Password user name web client>@<IP address
device>.api/…
Example: testuser:$myPasswd@192.168.0.2.api/get…
2. API key
<API key>@<IP address device>.api/…
Example: FTZKVUGUBGLIUIHGIGIZZTIUFFZKUFTABC@192.168.0.2.api/get…
