Hi,
I’ve seen some great presentations in the last few years from the conferences
and Livecode Global sessions using Livecode to access REST API’s from web
services, so I’m hoping someone can help me out here.
I need to access a web service (Box.com<http://Box.com>) from my Livecode app
using JSON web tokens.
The service documentation states that they only support RS256, RS384, and
RS512 for hashing the signature in the token. Unfortunately, in the 139 options
and variations listed by the Livecode CipherNames function I don’t see these.
Have I missed or misunderstood something or am I out of luck for using Livecode
for this task?
Box integration has been on my back burner for a while now, so I'll be
very much interested in what you come up with here.
Are you referring to the authorization step for the Box api?
If so, this might help... this should be a one-time thing, so I would
just do this once at the command line by hand and then grab the existing
key with LiveCode.
ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -m PEM -f jwtRS256.key
openssl rsa -in jwtRS256.key -pubout -outform PEM -out jwtRS256.key.pub
That will give you both the private and public keys to pass to the Box api.
