Droids

The accounts used for API access are called droids. These are separate from the persona accounts which are bound to human beings. Instead each droid is created for a specific task and possesses its own authentication token. The token must be transmitted together with every request in the HTTP header X-CdEDB-API-Token.

Currently we have the following droids:

• resolve: Lookup of usernames (email addresses) and resolver into names. This is used by the CyberAka.

• quick_partial_export: Data source for the template renderer in the offline VM. Only available in offline mode.
