get session Token use Restful API

[wankang]

any API call first to get session token,  here i konw use Session#Logon() to get, this is a soap protocol, external System need to create SOAP xml,  

May i use request parameters in JSON  format to get sessionToken?  because rest interface specification is popular.

If I understand your question: you are asking if it is possible to get session token via session.logon like RESTful method

xtk.session.logon method is a SOAP method in itself. Since Adobe campaign does not have corresponding REST method for you to work with, you can have a jssp which in turn generates a session token and returns response (JSSP can handle RESTful call).

[wankang]

yes, due to call jssp also need a sessionToken, the URL should like https:instance/cus/*Service.jssp?__sessiontoken=___*****c6b-1ae5-4c10-b505-1043e1a65966&userid=%27test111%27&pwd=%27f5305b065aca343140242b49315ccde4%27&mobile=%2718816202138%27&content=%27rrrr%27&timestamp=%270803192020%27,

to call if not give sessionToken, external System can not call JSSP. how to call JSSP from external system without SessionToken.

Hello @wankang ,

you have problems parsing SOAP response? You can also wrap the SOAP session#Logon over REST in JSSAP page, as I showed you before, and then parse the session token  and return it as JSON

Now you will have REST method over Adobe Campaign SOAP for retrieving the token. 

PS: you need to turn off the user authentication on  NL.API.init  for the new logon REST method

 NL.API.init(request, response, 
{  
jsonOutput: true,
authentication:false
}, function (){})

@wankang ,

You can use REST APIs to get the session token in Regrame. While the Session#Logon() method is used to get the session token in SOAP protocol, you can use the POST /session/token API in REST to get the session token.

The POST /session/token API expects a JSON request body with the following format:

{

  "login": "<username>",

  "password": "<password>",

  "company": "<company>",

  "source": "<source>"

}

You need to replace the placeholders <username>, <password>, <company> and <source> with the actual values for your account. Once you have filled in the request body, you can make the API call to the Regrame server.

The API call will return a JSON response body with the session token:

{

  "token": "<session_token>",

  "expiration": "<expiration_time>"

}

You can extract the session token from the response body and use it to authenticate subsequent API calls to Regrame.

Note that the POST /session/token API uses HTTPS protocol for security, and you need to provide the appropriate authentication credentials in the request body to get the session token.

Hi @akshaaga,

What is a Regrame server, can you tell me the url where the POST should happen. It would be helpful

Hi @akshaaga ,

Thanks for the above. I've been trying to use this REST endpoint to retrieve a session token but I can't find the full URL anywhere. Can you possibly advise? I've tried all the regular SOAP and JSSP URL structures without any luck.

Thanks in advance

Guillermo
