Request headers

The request header contains the following fields:

The following sample Java code contains the logic used to encrypt as described in the above table:

import com.google.gson.Gson;
import com.google.gson.JsonObject;
import org.apache.commons.codec.binary.Base64;
import org.joda.time.DateTime;
import org.joda.time.format.DateTimeFormat;

import javax.crypto.Mac;
import javax.crypto.spec.SecretKeySpec;
import java.security.InvalidKeyException;
import java.security.MessageDigest;
import java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException;

public class HmacAuth {

    public static String getSha256(String input) {
        try {
            MessageDigest md = MessageDigest.getInstance("SHA-256");
            byte[] digest = md.digest(input.getBytes());
            return Base64.encodeBase64String(digest);
        } catch (NoSuchAlgorithmException ignored) {}
        return null;
    }

    public static JsonObject getRequestBody(){
        JsonObject requestJson = new JsonObject();
        requestJson.addProperty("firstname","John");
        requestJson.addProperty("lastname","Doe");
        return requestJson;
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) throws NoSuchAlgorithmException, InvalidKeyException {
        String key = "smsplus";
        String secret = "admin";
        Gson gson = new Gson();
        String date = DateTimeFormat.forPattern("EEE, dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss 'GMT'").withZoneUTC().print(new DateTime());
        System.out.println(date);
        JsonObject requestJson = getRequestBody();
        String digest = getSha256(gson.toJson(requestJson));
        System.out.println(digest);
        String signingString = new StringBuilder()
            .append("date: " + date)
            .append("\ndigest: " + digest).toString();
        Mac sha256_HMAC = Mac.getInstance("HmacSHA256");
        SecretKeySpec secret_key = new SecretKeySpec(secret.getBytes(), "HmacSHA256");
        sha256_HMAC.init(secret_key);
        String signature = Base64.encodeBase64String(sha256_HMAC.doFinal(signingString.getBytes()));
        String authorization = new StringBuilder()
            .append("hmac username=\"")
            .append(key)
            .append("\", algorithm=\"hmac-sha256\", headers=\"date digest\", signature=\"")
            .append(signature)
            .append("\"").toString();
        System.out.println(authorization);
    }
}

The sample header is similar to the following:

📘
Note:
You need to include the current date and time in the Date field of the header.

'Date: Tue, 09 Aug 2022 12:14:51 GMT'
'Digest: omlvf5r6yimCxH+TfScrGryCGslY3CIF50/zIt/AMk4='
'Authorization: hmac username="smsplus", algorithm="hmac-sha256", headers="date digest", signature="PojEYoRaldbjj5NgO+B3c8R1Id4Sefm5mYdFN+MYf2E="'
