Use the Formant agent to authenticate API calls

API endpoints with an authorized user of device can authenticate calls using the agent.

When calling these endpoints, you can use the require_formant_auth parameter to enforce authorization or use the Formant agent as the source of authentication.

You can find an example on our GitHub page: GitHub: post_device_authenticated_cloud_call.py.

You can see the full list of endpoints which support agent authentication in our API reference.

To use agent authentication, you’ll have to update your agent and your Python SDK.
