(קישור לגרסה העברית) Linet API Authentication
Introduction
All API requests to Linet must be authenticated first as a data security measure.
Authentication is done by a pair of:
ID (login_id)
KEY (login_hash)
Every such pair is associated to the user who created it. Actions in Linet created by API requests that have been authenticated by a pair are regarded as created by the user associated with this pair and therefore, are recorded as such in the system.
Additionally, the Auth pair only can be created by the user associated to it.
In other words, if you want to create an auth pair associated with a certain user, you have first to Login to Linet UI with that users’ credentials (email and password).
?How can I Create an Authentication pair
Maybe first you may prefer to change the user UI to English? (Link to Guide how to change the UI language for a Linet user)
First step: Navigate to API Auth pair creation screen
Configuration menu (Gears on top right hand corner if in English UI)->Manage users->Select editing the current user->click on API keys tab->Click on “Create New Key” Button
Second Step: Copy The login _id, login_hash, Company ID
Attention!: All three credentials (Including company ID) should be copied before saving them by pressing the “create” button, because the API key and Company ID created will become encoded and inaccessible by any Linet interface after saving them, as a data security measure.
Additionally, now is the time to name this authentication pair with some short descriptive information as for what purpose and witch data integration this pair is created for.
