API URL
The SummitAI API URL is http://<Base_URL>/REST/Summit_RESTWCF.svc/RESTService/ CommonWS_JsonObjCall. Replace <Base_URL> with the customer’s API Server URL.
API Authentication
You can authenticate all SummitAI APIs using an API Key. From the Sierra HF01 release onwards, SummitAI implemented the default Token-based API authentication for Web Services. The authentication requires the following key value pairs in the Request body:
AuthType": "APIKEY",
APIKey: "XXXXXXXXXXXXX"
Generate an API Key
- Log into the SummitAI application.
- Select Admin> Basic > Users > User List. The USER LIST page is displayed.
- Click ADD NEW on the ACTIONS The NEW USER page is displayed.
- Select the Domain and specify the User Name.
- On the General tab, specify all the required details.
- On the Access tab, select the Login Type as API Key.
- The API Key of the selected Domain is picked up by the Application by default.
- Specify the API Key Expiry
- Select the Role Template from the list.
- Click SUBMIT.
Note:
After generating an API Key, copy it and save it securely. If the API Key expires, go to the User Details page and update the API Key Expiry date.
Note:
- To enable the User Name and Password-based authentication, add the below key in the web.config file:
<add key="IsAPIKeyDisabled" value="true" /> - If you don't add the key in the web.config file or if the specified value of this key is false, by default, the Token-based API authentication gets enabled for the Web Services.
