Authentication

DiscoDB uses JSON Web Tokens (JWTs) to authenticate requests. To obtain one, use the login endpoint. Then, authenticate your requests by adding the Authorizationheader with the value Bearer <token>, where is the JWT you obtained from the login endpoint.

Authorization: Bearer <token>

Best Practices

• Do not push your tokens to version control. Otherwise, your teammates will be mad at you!!!
• Use sessionStorage instead of localStorage on browsers to prevent XSS attacks
