Details
This document serves as a technical guide for developers utilizing the Aidbox API, detailing the setup process for Basic Authentication. To access the API, one must construct an authorization value by joining the Client ID and Secret with a colon, and then Base64 encoding it. The initial steps involve creating a resource Client via the `/fhir/Client` endpoint and ensuring that the `basic` grant type is permitted. Furthermore, to manage permissions, developers are instructed to use `/fhir/AccessPolicy` to create a root-level policy (e.g., `api-clients`) and link it to the newly created client reference. Following these steps, developers can send authenticated HTTP requests to resources like GET `/Patient`. The guide provides concrete implementation examples using cURL commands and JavaScript libraries (axios/fetch), functioning as a technical reference for integration.
