-Authentication methods they use
1-API Key Authentication:
Developers receive an API key after registering with MG Bedbank
This key uniquely identifies the client application and is required
for all API requests.
The API key is sent as part of the HTTP request headers or as a
query parameter.
2. Token-Based Authentication (OAuth-like):
-Upon initial authentication using an API key or credentials (username
and password), the system issues an access token.
-This token must be included in subsequent requests to verify the client.
3. Session-Based Authentication (Optional):
-Some platforms may issue session IDs for temporary access.
-Less common in modern APIs but could be used for specific
integrations.
-Supported data formats
1. JSON (JavaScript Object Notation)
-Primary format for both requests and responses.
-Lightweight, easy to read and parse.
-Ideal for web and mobile applications due to its wide compatibility.
2. XML(Extensible Markup Language)
-May be supported as an alternative format for compatibility with older
systems or legacy integrations.
-Verbose but structured and widely used in B2B integrations.
