You can authenticate HTTP API requests using basic authentication, a service account token, or a session cookie (acquired via regular login or OAuth).
|
|
|
|
### Basic auth
|
|
|
|
If basic auth is enabled (it is enabled by default), then you can authenticate your HTTP request via
|
|
standard basic auth. Basic auth will also authenticate LDAP users.
|
|
|
|
curl example:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
curl http://admin:admin@localhost:3000/api/org
|
|
{"id":1,"name":"Main Org."}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Service account token
|
|
|
|
To create a service account token, click on **Administration** in the left-side menu, click **Users and access**, then **Service Accounts**.
|
|
For more information on how to use service account tokens, refer to the [Service Accounts](/docs/grafana/<GRAFANA_VERSION>/administration/service-accounts/) documentation.
|
|
|
|
You use the token in all requests in the `Authorization` header, like this:
|
|
|
|
**Example**:
|
|
|
|
```http
|
|
GET http://your.grafana.com/api/dashboards/db/mydash HTTP/1.1
|
|
Accept: application/json
|
|
Authorization: Bearer eyJrIjoiT0tTcG1pUlY2RnVKZTFVaDFsNFZXdE9ZWmNrMkZYbk
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The `Authorization` header value should be _`Bearer <YOUR_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_TOKEN>`_.
