Format:

To encode enter your Qlik Enterprise Manager credentials in below format.

Example of encoded code:

To get session ID:

Change the encode value (you generated from above step) and server on the URL below

Open command prompt and enter the command below after you modify it:

curl -i -k --header "Authorization: Basic ZG9tYWluXHVzZXJuYW1lOnBhc3N3b3Jk" https://servername/attunityenterprisemanager/api/v1/login

Tested this recently and here are two example commands to use after getting the APISessionID:

C:\Users\administrator.DOMAIN>curl -i -k --header "Authorization: Basic ZG9tYWluXHVzZXJuYW1lOnBhc3N3b3Jk" https://aem1.domain.local/attunityenterprisemanager/api/v1/login

returns:

HTTP/2 200
content-length: 0
content-type: text/html
server: Microsoft-HTTPAPI/2.0
enterprisemanager.apisessionid: aSIAaBeUpVblE128hlfN4Q

I could see session time out would be 5 minutes, is there any way we can increase this session timeout?

also, if we create more sessions, in between that 5 minutes will it cause any issues?
