rest_ws POST endpoint security tracking

Questions
1

Hi,

i’m using the rest_ws plugin to call a POST endpoint which creates a new record in a table.
On this table i enabled “Tracking (Insert/Update/Delete)” for a user group also called “Tracking”.
I also added my webservice user to the “Tracking” group.

But it seems that rest_ws calls are stateless and so there is no user login and no tracking which documents record changings.

Is there a way when using the rest_ws plugin to record the changes via security tracking?

Thanks!
Alex

Hi Alex,

Do you call security.login() in your ws_create method with your webservice user? I think that should make it work.

Hi Ruben,

thank you very much! It was indeed so simple! I thought there would be an auto-login with the basic auth.
