[Koha-devel] Clarifying public routes on REST API

[dcook at prosentient.com.au]

Hi all,

 

Could I get some clarification on the purpose of the "public" routes for the
REST API?

 

In the case of
https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=24909, it looks
like it's a public API that doesn't require authentication/authorization. 

 

However other "public" routes like /api/v1/public/* all require
authentication and appropriate authorization. Are these denoted as "public"
as we're suggesting that only these routes should be used by third-party
"public" systems? I don't get it.

 

Hoping someone can offer some clarification.
