Calling a Rest URL that contains Hash value

Anonymous — Fri, 26 Jun 2020 16:25:05 GMT

Hi,

I'm trying to execute a REST call using tRESTClient.

I used this before, and it works fine, but for this specific service, where the authentication contains a hashed value that expires every 5 minutes.

So I need to have this value created at runtime.

I found the following code that needs to be used to create te hash :

var auth = accountId + ':' + apiKeyId + ':' + (new Date()).getTime();
var authHash = auth + ':' + CryptoJS.SHA512(auth + apiKey).toString(CryptoJS.enc.Hex);

I have the values for accountId,apiKeyId & apiKey

How (and where) do I create 'authHash' value in my job ?

BTW. I'm not a seasoned developer,

thanks for any help.

Before invoking the tRestClient, you can use a tJava/ tMap or similar to generate this value, save it in a context/ globalMap and use that value in your query parameters.
