You can use the token for API calls.
Thanks Anton for confirming but when i tried it, I was getting 401 error
this is my api call from postman
const axios = require('axios');
let data = JSON.stringify({
"name": "shahasasab",
"uniqueId": "090990909",
"category": "Vehicle"
});
let config = {
method: 'post',
maxBodyLength: Infinity,
url: 'http://localhost:8082/api/devices?token=USER_TOKEN',
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
'Accept': 'application/json'
},
data : data
};
axios.request(config)
.then((response) => {
console.log(JSON.stringify(response.data));
})
.catch((error) => {
console.log(error);
});
But when i use basic auth instead of token then api is working fine so can you please tell me what is wrong with it or i have to add something
You have to use it as a Bearer token in the Authorization header, not as a query parameter.
Thank you Anton, its work
Hello everyone,
I am using traccar v5.6 and i am building a system in which first i will add device to traccar and then takes its device_Id and store in my custom db.
as per this post https://www.traccar.org/forums/topic/unable-to-get-devices-and-add-devices-through-through-api-using-token-in-traccar-412/ i understand that you just can use token api call but i am using v5.6 so is there any changes or not.
i want to know can we use USER_TOKEN in all traccar api(add device or add users) as an authentication/authorisation method or we have to use basic auth for that.
