Authentication

An authentication token is required prior to interacting with any of the three payload types.

The Logware API will be considered EOL (End of Life) on January 1, 2024. Support for the API and its methods will discontinue on that date. So that you know- Logware customers will be contacted in advance with migration instructions.

Logware’s API uses JSON Web Token (JWT) authentication. Any endpoints that require authorization will need this token to be included in an “Authorization Bearer” header. Once generated, a token is valid for 10 hours. You can regenerate a new token at any time.

Authenticate

POST https://api.logware.io/api/users/authenticate

This authentication method is only needed once every 10 hours. Please track the age of the token so the application is not requesting a new token before each StoreHash, StoreData, or StoreSpan method invocation.
