Trend Micro Email
Security supports HTTP basic
authentication. The client sends HTTP requests with the Authorization header that consists of Basic and a
Base64-encoded string username:apikey.
For example, if the user name is apitest01 and the
API key you obtained is d9dfae099217ea5fe0752f2511d15f937e2b785d,
convert the string apitest01:d9dfae099217ea5fe0752f2511d15f937e2b785d to Base64 encoded format, and
the following is generated:
YXBpdGVzdDAxOmY5ZGZhZTA5OTIxN2VhNWZlMDc1MmYyNTExZDE1ZjkzN2UyYjc4NWQ=
In this case, the Authorization header will be:
Authorization: Basic YXBpdGVzdDAxOmY5ZGZhZTA5OTIxN2VhNWZlMDc1MmYyNTExZDE1ZjkzN2UyYjc4NWQ=
