Encoding data method for the API key was created by sogeti
Hi,

We have a problem with the using of the API Key.
We used the GET method and succeeded seeing datas. Then, we encrypted the datas in AES 256 but we are facing a problem when we tried to use the POST method.
We have this error : {"error":"invalid API query", "message":"'data' is not correctly encoded for method POST. Request for correct API KEY"}. We tried several times and have the same error.

Do you think this problem can be caused by the encoding data method. Are we supposed to use base64 for the API ?
Also, where can we modify the AES encryption code, in which file ?

Thank you in advance.

You must encrypt with AES 128, using API Key.
Unless you define $aesKeyLength in parameters.php default is 128 (not 256 as it is illegal in some countries)
$data=AesCtr::encrypt($data, $apiKey, Parameter::getGlobalParameter('aesKeyLength'));

We checked the file fileconfig/parameters.php but we don't have $data and $aesKeyLength.
Is it normal ?
Are we supposed to add them ?

Yes it is normal.
$aesKeyLength is not defined by default, and encryption uses 128bits.
You must define it yourself if you want to change this

Thank you.
But we don't have the line with $data neither.

No, the line is an example of what you have to write to encode data.
