This section describes the methods which allow an external system to manage a session in CloudBlue Commerce. There are the following methods:
- Login: This method creates a session.
- Touch: This method prolongs a session.
- Logout: This method destroys a session.
All described methods are available through the HTTPS protocols as GET and POST requests. The URL for executing methods can look as follows:
https://BRAND_ACCESS_URL/servlet/Sessions
where the BRAND_ACCESS_URL parameter is the URL for accessing a brand, for example, cp.brand01.acom. Therefore, the complete URL for executing methods is https://cp.brand01.acom/servlet/Sessions in the example above.
Note: The URL for executing methods contains the PARAMETERS suffix if the GET method is used for HTTP requests. The PARAMETERS is a list of input parameters in parameter_name=parameter_value form.
The Using an Existing Session section describes how to use the existing session for logging in to the CloudBlue Commerce control panel.
