  title: Logi Composer Rest API
  description: >-
    The Composer REST API provides methods for retrieving, updating, and
    deleting Composer metadata. With the API endpoints, you can manage
    connections, data sources, accounts, groups, and users quickly and easily.


    ## Authentication


    This API supports the following authentication schemes:


    - **basicAuth** – HTTP Basic authentication using global administrator
    credentials (username and password). Required for most endpoints.

    - **trustedAccessAuth** – HTTP Basic authentication using Trusted Access
    client credentials. Use the **client ID** as the username and the **client
    secret** as the password. Required for Trusted Access token and session
    endpoints.

    - **bearerAuth** – HTTP Bearer token authentication. Supply a token
    previously obtained from a Trusted Access token endpoint
    (`/api/trusted-access/push/tokens` or `/api/trusted-access/pull/tokens`).
