authenticating requests

[Boxer]

I want to make a POST request (I'm posting a reflection to ePortfolio), but need to authenticate it. I'm not positive what parameters to pass in -- are there any samples that I just missed? I'm working in Javascript. 

Thanks!

Hi Boxer

There are a number of SDKs - including Javascript - that enable the authentication process. I also recommend that you review the ID/Key Authentication topic for full details on how authentication works.

Authenticating requests is done by our SDKs and there isn't any significant difference from your end between GETs/POSTs/etc. with respect to the use of our SDKs.
