API Signature
The API signature is used to validate each call to the API.
This must be passed with each call to the Yodio system.
Calculating the signature is done by
- Sorting all the parameters being passed alphabetically by the parameter name
- For example: returnformat=json, apikey=00000, method=yodio.test sorts to apikey=00000, method=yodio.test, returnformat=json
- Combine them all together into on elong string, removing the equals
- For example: the above would be, apikey00000methodyodio.testreturnformatjson
- Append your API secret key to the end
- For example: the above would be, apikey00000methodyodio.testreturnformatjsonAPISECRETTEXT
- Calculate the MD5 hash of that string
- Append the calculated value as anotehr parameter to the call
