Pre-shared key with RESTful API

How would we interact with a RESTful API in salesforce.com using a pre-shared key?


Thank you in advance.

Hi,

You can create a "Connected App" in your salesforce org, and it will generate a "Consumer Key" and a "Consumer Secret" which can be used by REST API for security. You can also create custom attributes to create key/value pairs.

You can find more help here:
