All Social-ID NOW Restful APIs make use of HTTP Basic for authentication.
Most APIs require authentication through the id/secret pair of a Marketing Account or a Social Login App.
However, some APIs may be used without any authentication. An example is the login/info API, which requires only the Social Login App secret that can be found in the Social Login App settings.

Marketing Account Authentication
Each Marketing Account has its own id/secret pair to access available APIs.

Example

Social Login App Authentication
Each Social Login App has its own id/secret pair to access available APIs. In those APIs the information created or retrieved will always be associated with the Social Login App used for authentication.

https://app.socialidnow.com/marketing/login/apps/<login_app_id>/apis
