Calling Key Pair Authentication API

Last updated: 2023-12-22 09:49:43

    Overview

    This document describes how to call the key pair authentication API.

    Prerequisites

    Creating key pair authentication API

    1. In the API Gateway console, create an API and select the authentication type as "key pair authentication" (for more information, see API Creation Overview).
    2. Release the service where the API resides to an environment. See Service Release and Deactivation.
    3. Create a key pair on the key management page in the console.
    4. Create a usage plan on the usage plan page in the console and bind it to the created key pair (for more information, see Sample Usage Plan).
    5. Bind the usage plan to the API or the service where the API resides.

    Confirming information

    Before calling the API, you must have the SecretId and SecretKey of the API to be called and understand the API request path, method, and parameters.

    Preparing tools

    You can initiate requests from sources including browsers, browser plugins, Postman, and clients. Postman is recommended for simple validation.

    Sample Call

    Address

    
    http://service-xxxxxxxx-1234567890.ap-guangzhou.apigateway.myqcloud.com/release
    // Enter the URL of the API service you want to call
    URL concatenation rule: service path + environment parameter + API path

    Methods

    POST

    Request body

    QueryParam_a=value1&QueryParam_b=value2

    Request headers

    Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,image/webp,*/*;q=0.8
    Accept-Language: zh-cn
    Connection: Keep-Alive
    Host: service-xxxxxxxx-1234567890.ap-guangzhou.apigateway.myqcloud.com/release

    // Request body type, which should be set according to the actual request body content.
    X-Client-Proto: http
    X-Client-Proto-Ver: HTTP/1.1
    X-Real-IP: 163.xxx.xx.244
    X-Forwarded-For: 106.xxx.xx.102, 163.xxx.xx.244
    Date: Sun, 21 Sep 2017 06:18:21 GMT
    Authorization: hmac id="AKIDCgXXXXXXXX48pN", algorithm="hmac-sha1", headers="Date Host", signature="630123456789da9c"
    // Signature. For specific signature algorithms, see the key calculation method in authentication and security
    The eventually delivered HTTP request contains at least two headers: Date or X-Date and Authorization. More optional headers can be added in the request. If Date is used, the server will not check the time; if X-Date is used, the server will check the time.
    The value of Date header is the construction time of the HTTP request in GMT format, such as Fri, 09 Oct 2015 00:00:00 GMT.
    The value of X-Date header is the construction time of the HTTP request in GMT format, such as Mon, 19 Mar 2018 12:08:40 GMT. It cannot deviate from the current time for more than 15 minutes.
    For the value of Authorization header, see Key Pair Authentication. For sample signatures generated in different programming languages, see API Gateway.
