Working with the API
The API is protected by OAuth 2 acting as a resource server verifying tokens using token introspection.
When developing it uses a locally running instance of an
authorization server
that is run inside Docker. It can be started with docker compose -f docker-compose.yml up.
Since there is no frontend to interact with the authorization server there's a helper script in
GetToken.java that can be run directly with java GetToken.java to run through the authorization flow
and get an access token.
Once the token has been obtained go to the Swagger UI to interact with the API. Click the "Authorize" button in the top right and paste the access token to log in.
