API

TIP OpenWiFi project is a data-model driven design, meaning the features in the solution are designed as interfaces to be consumed either by micro-services, network devices, or other applications integrating with the solution.

The most useful way to learn the TIP OpenWiFi API is to consume the Swagger interface that fully describes all implemented REST methods.

TIP OpenWiFi controller uses OAuth for authentication. A bearer token must first be obtained for subsequent API calls to succeed.

Curl Request to controller for Bearer Token

curl -k --request POST --header "Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8" --data '{"userId":"support@example.com","password":"support"}'   https://${portal-service-ip:port}/management/v1/oauth2/token

Successful Response

Use the value from access_token for subsequent API calls into the controller
