I'm trying to use the API on a website, here's the part of the manual:
Authenticated Sessions (taken from here)
To create an authenticated session, you need to request an authToken from the '/auth' API resource.
URL: http://stage.amee.com/auth (this is not my domain)
Method: POST
Request format: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Response format: application/xml, application/json
Response code: 200 OK
Response body: Details of the authenticated user, including API
version.
Extra data: "authToken" cookie and header, containing the
authentication token that should be
used for subsequent calls.
Parameters: username / password
Example
Request
POST /auth HTTP/1.1
Accept: application/xml
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
username=my_username&password=my_password
Response
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Set-Cookie: authToken=1KVARbypAjxLGViZ0Cg+UskZEHmqVkhx/Pm...;
authToken: 1KVARbypAjxLGViZ0Cg+UskZEHmqVkhx/PmEvzkPGp...==
Content-Type: application/xml; charset=UTF-8
QUESTION:
How do I get that to work?
I tried jQuery, but it seems to have problem with XSS. Actual code snippet would be greatly appreciated.
p.s.
All I was looking for was WebClient class in C#
