Taffy for REST – Part 5: Access Tokens with some real simple authorization
November 20, 2018
This is an introduction to APIkey based authorization with Taffy.
StackOverflow definition
An application programming interface key (API key) is a code passed in by computer programs calling an API (application programming interface) to identify the calling program, its developer, or its user to the Web site. API keys are used to track and control how the API is being used, for example to prevent malicious use or abuse of the API (as defined perhaps by terms of service).
