Authentication
With an Aurora Vision account, you can request an X-AuroraVision-ApiKey by contacting FIMER Customer Service.
The key is uniquely linked to the Aurora Vision account and to the assets registered with that account.
Once the X-AuroraVision-ApiKey has been obtained, it is possible to access the service using it as the header of the Authentication API in conjunction with the credentials of the Aurora Vision account. This two-step control allows a user to log-in only if the key associated with it is the correct one, thus protecting the privacy of the data on the cloud platform.
Let’s take a look at an example.
Let’s suppose we have an Aurora Vision account with the following credentials:UserID : user.testPassword : Test123!X-AuroraVision-ApiKey : 1a23b456-c789-1d23-12ef-ghil123456mn-1o23
Since we have all the parameters required, we can access the service:

Allow to issue an X-AuroraVision-Token, which expires after 60 minutes of inactivity, to be used as a header for all service APIs calls.
