Does StorageGRID API support certificate-based authentication like ONTAP API?
Applies to
StorageGRID version 11.x
Answer
- No, StorageGRID only supports token-based authentication.
- A token needs to be captured by the API by providing the credentials of StorageGRID account.
- The captured token needs to be placed in the authorization header of every following GET, POST, DELETE request.
- ONTAP uses NetApp Manageability SDK which makes certificated based authentication possible.
