Authentication - 1080Motion/API GitHub Wiki

Authentication with the API (both gRPC and Web API) is done using a 1080 motion API key that you create using the 1080 web app. After logging in as an administrator, click on the name in the top right corner and select "API Keys" in the drop-down menu.

Note: You have to be an administrator for the instructor account to be able to create keys.

If you have questions or cannot generate keys, contact 1080Motion support.

The same API key is used on both flavors APIs

Each API key grants (read only) access to a single instructor.

The key should be included in the request headers of all requests to the API or the request will be rejected.

Web API

Include the key in the X-1080-API-Key header. See Authentication (Web API) for details

Grpc API

Exchange the key for a temporary token. See Authentication (Grpc API) for details
