Introduction
Here are some examples for using the Open-AudIT API via Postman.
When beginning a new request, we always logon and store the returned cookie for future use. In addition to the cookie, if we want to create a resource (Orgs, Locations, Credentials, Discoveries, et al) we need to provide an access token. An access token is generated with every request (except logon) and any of the last 20 (by default, settable in the configuration) will be accepted. You should always aim to use the last access token issued. An example token is in the Get Device List response, below.
Logon
Request
| Section | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| URL | POST | http://localhost/omk/open-audit/login | |
| Headers | Accept | application/json | |
| Body | Type | form-data | |
| Key | username | admin | |
| Key | password | password |
Response
{
"message": "Authenticated as user admin",
"ok": 1
}
Get Device List
Logon as above, then.
Request

Create Discovery
Logon as above, then request list of devices (or any available endpoint) so we can use the meta → access_token in our request (see above response).
