Class Credentials

java.lang.Object

com.flowthings.client.Credentials

public class Credentials
extends Object

Holds credentials necessary to authenticate with flowthings.io any of our APIs.

Credentials consist of an "account" and "token". The account is your flowthings.io username. The token is either:

• Your Master Token
• A generated Token Object

This class also gives a convenience method for retrieving credentials from IBM Bluemix

 
  
  // Using vanilla credentials
  Credentials creds = new Credentials("matt", "SSOjDZ4VMHS2JcwT1sIpE8x91QfG");
  
  // Or get from Bluemix, or revert to provided if not available
  Credentials bluemixCreds = Credentials.fromBluemixOrDefault(creds);
  
  RestApi api = new RestApi(bluemixCreds);
 }
