🔍 Common Query Examples & Testing

Authentication Examples

Service-Level Authentication (Main System)

bash
# Generate signature for service authentication
SERVICE_ID="TESTING_1"
TIMESTAMP=$(date +%s)
METHOD="GET"
URL="/api/v1/cities?stateIds=1&limit=5"
SIGNATURE=$(echo -n "${METHOD}${URL}${TIMESTAMP}" | openssl dgst -sha256 -hmac "service_secret_here" -binary | base64)

curl -X GET "http://localhost:3000${URL}" \
  -H "x-service-id: ${SERVICE_ID}" \
  -H "x-timestamp: ${TIMESTAMP}" \
  -H "x-signature: ${SIGNATURE}"

Partner-Level Authentication

bash
# Generate signature for partner authentication
PARTNER_ID="partner_001"
TIMESTAMP=$(date +%s)
METHOD="GET"
URL="/api/v1/partner-packages/${PARTNER_ID}"
SIGNATURE=$(echo -n "${METHOD}${URL}${TIMESTAMP}" | openssl dgst -sha256 -hmac "partner_secret_here" -binary | base64)

curl -X GET "http://localhost:3000${URL}" \
  -H "x-partner-id: ${PARTNER_ID}" \
  -H "x-timestamp: ${TIMESTAMP}" \
  -H "x-signature: ${SIGNATURE}"
