Cention Organization, Area, Routing and Tag API

This Cention Organization, Area, Routing and Tag API is organized around REST. It is meant to include everything necessary to manage organization, area, routing and tag in Cention Contact Center programmatically.

Cention Contact Center is centered around workspaces (spaces for short). Organization, area, routing and tag are unique to a workspace and therefore workspace must be specified in the URL for each request.

• :id variable integer. Eg: 1, 200, 123, etc.
• :workspace variable string. Eg: televox.
• <access-key-id>, :access-key-id variable string of access key id. Eg: b1Ze9QZzl_4aVmyKstVd3r7V4pXLkGwoXkN79adh.
• <access-key-secret> variable string of access key secret.
• <signature> variable signature string result from HMAC SHA256 concatenation several parts of the API request with colon as separator, encoded in hexadecimal string. Eg: 46cbf972d16ccb1f4e5a8b5888316898c55d105dc1411dea2451a7216840456e
• HMAC-SHA256 HMAC SHA25 operation function which take argment <access-key-secret> and data of concatenation of API parts with colon as separator.
• hexString function take convert bytes to hexadecimal string.

Use HTTP header Authorization: Authorization CENTION1-HMAC-SHA256 <access-key-id>,<signature>

Use HMAC SHA256 HMAC-SHA256(<access-key-secret>, <access-key-id>:<space>:<api-path>:<field-value-1>:<field-value-2>...) Example: hexString(hmacSHA256("secret", "xyz:space:/v1/org/1:myorgname")) NOTE: Field values are order by field key ascending alphanumerically. Eg, value of field login_name come first before value of field user_name. Array data is calculated using comma seperator field. Eg, array [1, 2, 3] will become 1,2,3. Example: hexString(hmacSHA256("secret", "xyz:space:/v1/agent-group/1:1,2,3"))

Omitted field will not be processed and will not be return as response data unless there is indirect effect change.
