Overview

These API endpoints are used to add, edit, or delete Connections/ Listeners/ Formats. 

Authentication

Before making a call to the built-in API, the user must receive a JWT token from the authentication API.

Step 1. Use any user with the Editor or Administrator role to call Etlworks authentication endpoint and receive an access token.

Step 2. Use the access token received in Step 1 to call Etlworks API endpoints. The access token must be submitted as a header parameter, as in: Authorization:Bearer access-token.

Access tokens in Etlworks are short-lived and self-expiring. An access token gives you access to the APIs for approximately 10 minutes. It is recommended that you refresh the access token before each call to the API.
