1. How to Connect via cURL

Bearer Token

curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
     -H "Authorization: Bearer AUTH_TOKEN" \
     -d '{
           "id": 1,
           "jsonrpc": "2.0",
           "method": "RPC_METHOD"
         }' \
     ENDPOINT_URL/para-http-rpc

X-Auth-Token

curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
     -H "X-Auth-Token: AUTH_TOKEN" \
     -d '{
           "id": 1,
           "jsonrpc": "2.0",
           "method": "RPC_METHOD"
         }' \
     ENDPOINT_URL/para-http-rpc

URL Auth

curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
     -d '{
           "id": 1,
           "jsonrpc": "2.0",
           "method": "RPC_METHOD"
         }' \
     ENDPOINT_URL/para-http-rpc?auth=AUTH_TOKEN
