Authentication Using a User Account

For accessing APIs, you can login via two types of accounts:
  • User account

    A User account represents an individual person interacting with the application or the system. User accounts are used for accessing the system on behalf of a user.

    For accessing APIs with a user account, you need to get the session ID by providing a username and password in the login API. This session ID can then be used for accessing other APIs.
    Note: You can also use the username and password in all API calls instead of the sessionId. However, this is not recommended.
