API Authentication
Posted: Wed Jun 03, 2020 2:01 pm
Hi,
Let me start by saying I can just about read PHP code. I got somebody to write some PHP code for formaLMS's API. (This person is no longer available to help me.)
For the most part, the code is working beautifully. I do however need help securing this with a token. Can somebody explain how to modify the below code and how to set it up in the LMS's API Authentication method?
I did read the new API documentation but I can't figure it out.
Here is the code I got. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

<?php
$url = "https://demo.formalms.com:443/";
$action = 'user/updateuser';
$data_params = array('idst' => 11836, 'lastname' => 'Doe');
$curl = curl_init();
$opt = array(
CURLOPT_URL=>$url.'/api/'.$action,
CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER=>1,
CURLOPT_POST=>1,
CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS=>$data_params,
CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT=>5, // Timeout to 5 seconds
CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER => 'false',
);
curl_setopt_array($curl, $opt);
// $output contains the output string
$output = curl_exec($curl);
// it closes the session
curl_close($curl);
echo $output;
