App Authentication

Authenticates an OBO app using the application saved RSA public key.

Authenticate an App with public key

Based on an authentication request token signed by the application's RSA private key, authenticate the API caller and return a session token.

A HTTP 401 Unauthorized error is returned on errors during authentication (e.g. invalid app, malformed authentication token, app's public key not imported in the pod, invalid token signature etc.).
