Authenticating an external service to use Concourse API

[chivince]

Hello folks,

I would like to create a service that could use Concourse API, to get the pipelines and their statuses.
Therefore, I'm looking for a way to do such queries directly, without using fly, but I don't know how to authenticate the service.
Do you know how to achieve it ?

Thanks a lot !

If you insist on not using fly, go-concourse may be the way to go. I am not aware of a example, but you could look at how fly login works and build something similar.

But I think your request to "get the pipelines and their statuses" may be much simpler to achieve with e.g. fly builds --json.

Thank you so much for your answer !

Actually, I found another topic addressing exactly what I wanted to do : #6241 (comment)
I just tried it, and using fly credentials, I'm able to get a token for a specific user, and then use it to access the API !
