user XML element
user
Controls the login to Alfabet RESTful API for exchanging data. The user name, token, and access mode must be specified.
By default, a sample token is set. The user name is not entered. By default, this anonymous access grants all users read and write access to all Alfabet objects.
Enter the key for the Alfabet server as the value for the token tag. This value depends on the user name. Enter a user name as the value for the name tag. This means that only this user has access to the Alfabet objects for which they have privileges.
Further information about the token and authorization can be found in the Alfabet Interface for RESTful Web Services manual, which you can download from Empower.
When accessing the Alfabet RESTful API, the login data is transferred with the HTTP header. Therefore, you must ensure that the transfer is encrypted.
