Authorize Method

Authenticates the component with the server using the current application key and Id.

procedure Authorize();

Remarks

This method authenticates the component with the server using the values held by ApplicationKey and ApplicationKeyId. A successful call to this method will clear and repopulate the following:

• Account* properties
• APIURL configuration setting
• DownloadURL configuration setting
• FragmentSize configuration setting (if necessary; refer to its documentation for more information)
• SimpleUploadLimit configuration setting (if necessary; refer to its documentation for more information)

The component must authenticate with the server before any other requests can be attempted; the component will call it automatically if necessary. As part of the authentication process, the server returns an authorization token which must be used to authorize all further requests; this token is valid for up to 24 hours. When it expires, this method must be called again.
