What is good for?
There are two ways to obtain an authorization token. The first option is to create a token in the user interface. This option is the simplest and is recommended for most API applications.
The Oauth2 protocol can also be used to obtain a token. The steps described below describe the procedure for obtaining an authorization token using OAuth2. We recommend using one of the available libraries to implement OAuth2. More information and an introduction to OAuth2.
About OAuth2
OAuth 2.0 is the industry-standard protocol for authorization. OAuth 2.0 focuses on client developer simplicity while providing specific authorization flows for web applications, desktop applications, mobile phones, and living room devices.

Please mind, that examples in code-styled blocks can contain a different provider URL (basically system2.netrex.cz). If you have an account under another provider, you have to change it according to yours provider URL (e.g. cloud.camstreamer.com) |
\uD83D\uDCD8 Creating a client application
First, we will create a new OAuth2 application. The OAuth2 application allows authorization to the API using any owner or guest account. The client application management interface is available after logging in to your account.
...
Click on the user icon in the upper right corner and select an option </> API.
Click on OAuth2 Application.
The OAuth2 application defines the requester for access to the application interface. Only full access accounts can create the application. The application can be used to authorize any system account.
When creating an application, you need to enter the following information:
...
name - any name, e.g. "My application"
...
application description - any description
...
list of redirect URLs - The URL to which the user is redirected after authorization
After OAuth2 is created, the application is generated:
client_id - unique application identifier
client_secret - application key
...

We recommend creating a new client application for each integration. |
Obtaining an authorization code
To obtain an authorization code, which can be further exchanged for an access token, the endpoint https://system2.netrex.cz/oauth2/auth is used.

POST: https://system2.netrex.cz/oauth2/auth/?response_type=code&client_id=CLIENT_ID&redirect_uri=CALLBACK_URL&scope=read,write |
