# Authentication ## Authenticating with mobileID or ID-card For specified partners the API allows for use of data from mobile ID for authentication. API client should perform authentication with eID according to the appropriate documentation, and then pass on values from the web server's certificate to the API server. ## POST /api/v1/registrant/auth/eid Returns a bearer token to be used for further API requests. Tokens are valid for 2 hours since their creation. #### Parameters Values in brackets represent values that come from the id card certificate. | Field name | Required | Type | Allowed values | Description | | ----------------- | -------- | ---- | -------------- | ----------- | | ident | true | String | | Identity code of the user (`serialNumber`) | | first_name | true | String | | Name of the customer (`GN`) | | last_name | true | String | | Name of the customer (`SN`) | #### Request ``` POST /api/v1/registrant/auth/token HTTP/1.1 Accept: application/json Content-type: application/json { "ident": "30110100103", "first_name": "Jan", "last_name": "Tamm", } ``` #### Response ``` HTTP/1.1 201 Content-Type: application/json { "access_token": "", "expires_at": "2018-07-13 11:30:51 UTC", "type": "Bearer" } ``` ## POST /api/v1/registrant/auth/username -- NOT IMPLEMENTED #### Parameters Values in brackets represent values that come from the id card certificate | Field name | Required | Type | Allowed values | Description | | ----------------- | -------- | ---- | -------------- | ----------- | | username | true | String | Username as provided by the user | | | password | true | String | Password as provided by the user | | #### Request ``` POST /api/v1/registrant/auth/token HTTP/1.1 Accept: application/json Content-type: application/json ``` #### Response ``` HTTP/1.1 201 Content-Type: application/json { "access_token": "", "expires_at": "2018-07-13 11:30:51 UTC", "type": "Bearer" } ``` ## Implementation notes: We do not need to store the session data at all, instead we can leverage AES encryption and use Rails secret as the key. General approximation: ```ruby class AuthenticationToken def initialize(secret = Rails.application.config.secret_key_base, values = {}) end def create_token_hash data = values.to_s cipher = OpenSSL::Cipher::AES.new(256, :CBC) cipher.encrypt encrypted = cipher.update(data) + cipher.final base64_encoded = Base64.encode64(encrypted) { token: base64_encoded, expires_in: values[:expires_in], type: "Bearer" } end end ```
