[Building Sakai] Access Sakai Tool Data via Entity Broker

[Thomas Amsler]

Thank you for all the information.

So I can create a new session via:

e.g.
curl -i -X POST -F "_username=<user name>" -F "_password=<pasword>"
http://nightly2.sakaiproject.org:8082/direct/session

..., which returns the Sakai session in the header and the response body.

e.g. 1be83d58-76a9-4a64-82b3-6aed8794e588

Now if I want to access all the announements for a user, what is the
correct sakai session header that I need to add to the request?

e.g.

curl -i -X GET -H "<some key ?>: 1be83d58-76a9-4a64-82b3-6aed8794e588" "
http://nightly2.sakaiproject.org:8082/direct/announcement/user.json"

Best,
-- Thomas
