In this post I’m going to walk you through utilizing the vRO workflow Eric Shanks and I developed for creating a Rubrik session over REST. This is the first workflow in the series, and without it, none of the subsequent workflows can be utilized..
Why do I need this workflow?
In order to complete REST requests against the Rubrik API, an authenticated session is required. This workflow authenticates with the Rubrik REST API, and returns an authentication token. This token is encoded into a base64 token for use in subsequent REST calls.
