I realized that SharePoint exposes a REST GET API. While I am logged into SharePoint, I am able to invoke the API using my browser URL bar without explicitly writing credentials into the GET request. However, I would like to be able to make a request based on that same session in a JavaScript HTTP request (without filling in credentials). Is that possible? If so, how does one do it?

  • It depends on what variable I need to obtain. From what I can see it should either be a Bearer token or basic auth (username+password). I will have to look into that before I can answer you Commented Feb 24, 2020 at 17:02
  • No, it does not answer my question. The answer does not tell me how to obtain the parameters I need. Or do you know the names of them, @ControlAltDel? Commented Feb 24, 2020 at 19:31

  • From what I can see: No, it does not answer my question. It does not tell me 1) what parameters to obtain, 2) whether they can be obtained, 3) how to make the request Commented Feb 24, 2020 at 20:08
