date	The current date and time. For example, format of the date is Wed, 28 Jun 2023 11:25:19 GMT.
authorization	The actual HMAC signature generated using the specified algorithm (sha512) and includes the hashed data. For more information, refer to authorization fields description.

authorization fields description

Field	Description
username	Represents the username or identifier for the client or merchant, for example smsplus.
algorithm	Use SHA512 algorithm for hashing and send this as header value.
headers	Specifies which headers have been used in generating the hash, for example date.
signature	The HMAC signature generated using the specified algorithm. For more information, refer to hashing algorithm.

hashing algorithm

You must hash the request parameters using the following hash logic:

Hash logic: sha512(<Body data> + '|' + date + '|' + merchant_secret)

Where <Body data> contains the request body posted with the request.

Sample header code

var merchant_key = 'smsplus';
var merchant_secret = 'izF09TlpX4ZOwmf9MvXijwYsBPUmxYHD';
// date
var date = new Date();
date = date.toUTCString();

// authorization
var authorization = getAuthHeader(date);

function getAuthHeader(date) {
    var AUTH_TYPE = 'sha512';
    var data = isEmpty(request['data']) ? "" : request['data'];
    var hash_string = data + '|' + date + '|' + merchant_secret;
    var hash = CryptoJS.SHA512(hash_string).toString(CryptoJS.enc.Hex);
    return `hmac username="${merchant_key}", algorithm="${AUTH_TYPE}", headers="date", signature="${hash}"`;
}
