Authentication

PCI Booking offers several methods of authentication when submitting requests. These include:

• Authentication using API Key.
• Authentication using Basic Authentication.
• Authentication using Session Token.
• Authentication using Access Token.

For each HTTP request documented in the reference manual, it will list which authentication method is available for this request (some requests may support multiple forms of authentication).

For HTTP requests that require authentication using API Key or Basic Authentication, the value will be included in the HTTP Authorization header.
For HTTP requests that require authentication using access token or session token, the value will be included in a query string parameter of the request URL.

Access Token Vs. Session Token

Between the two options of using the Access Token or the Session Token, we recommend using the Access Token.
