Hi all,
I’m using OJS version 3.2.0.2.
I would like to invoke the REST API using the Cookie-based authentication from an external application, to avoid security issue.
I searched on this forum, google, etc but I did not find how to get/generate the CSRF Token and use it as Header parameter (X-CSRF-TOKEN) in my POST or PUT request in the application.

Maybe I’m missing something.

Could you help me on this please?

Thanks a lot,
Marcella

Maybe he can help you.
