Request Expiration

Each request to Prodege APIs must be timestamped. In some cases, the request timestamp will be used to identify old and expired API requests. The “request_date” parameter will hold the request timestamp and it will also be used to generate the request signature.

The value for the “request_date” parameter is to be calculated in this manner:

request_date = client_time + request_time_offset

where client_time is your time in milliseconds, and request_time_offset is the amount of time difference (in milliseconds) between your time and the ProdegeMR Server’s time. request_time_offset can be determined by issuing the Lookup Request Time Offset API Call.
