Spongecell API Documentation: Reference - Session

Session

Authenticate to your Spongecell User account, and log in by creating a session. The session will provide temporary authorization to your user account.

The API requires one of 3 sets of parameters for proper authentication: user_name and password, wkey, or digest and timestamp. The parameters are described in detail below.

Also provides actions for "logging out" by destroying the session, or checking whether already logged in by showing the session.
