IScorE API¶

In order to better integrate with external applications and make some administrative tasks easier, IScorE has a JSON API. The browsable API can be found at /api/v1. The API uses Token authentication to protect the private portions of the API. Currently, you must use the django admin (/admin) or the python shell (python manage.py shell) to create a token for a user. To create a token from the shell, do the following:

>>> from django.contrib.auth.models import User
>>> from rest_framework.authtoken.models impor Token
>>> user = User.objects.get(username='<username desiring token>')
>>> token = Token.objects.create(user=user)
>>> print token.key

Authorization: Token <TOKEN_HERE>

The API has the following sections:
