API
Signature Algorithm

For every request, we will need to have a 'signature' parameter in it for the authentication. Server will reject the request if the signature value failed in the validation.

  • Append client id, timestamp, client_secret in the string, with the appendix of"GD:" eg. signature_string = "GD:"+ client_id+timestamp+client_secret
  • Encrypt the signature_string that we have in the above step. eg. md5(signature_string).
  • MD5 uses a 128-bit length digest algorithm, which is expressed in hexadecimal.
    A hexadecimal character can represent 4 bits, so the signed character length is fixed to 32 hexadecimal characters.
Signature Example:
      client = 'uid7'
      timestamp = '2018-11-04T22:49:36+11:00'
      client_secret = 'secret7'
      signature string:
      signature_string = "GD:uid72018-11-04T22:49:36+11:00secret7"
      response from MD5:
      signature = b1dd868452f87473b91131e7a58e044a
