public TicketGrantingTicketResponse (
   TicketGrantingTicketRequest request
);

Parameters

TicketGrantingTicketRequest
A TicketGrantingTicketRequest containing nessessary authentication data.

Return Value

A TicketGrantingTicketResponse containing the TicketGrantingTicket with token and secret.

Remarks

This is the first method you'll have to call from this service. It is the starting point in the authentication procedure.

In detail: Before you can use any other functionality of this service, you'll have to authenticate against the service. This is achieved by following the steps of the authentication procedure described in the CarRentalAgentService SDK - Reference Manual. This method is the first step of the authentication procedure.

In return, you'll get a TicketGrantingTicket, which will contain a token and a secret you need to complete the subsequent steps of the authentication procedure.

Note   

The returned TicketGrantingTicket will have a very short time of validity (usually 60 seconds). You must complete the complete authentication procedure within this time period. If you fail to complete the procedure in given time, the complete procedure will fail - even if the given data is valid. You then will have to start the authentication procedure again by calling this method.
