David Keller (113) | asked Feb 03 '17, 4:53 a.m.

Is  there an updated version for this guide?

2.0. is quite an old version, I'm sure lots of things have changed. Sadly, I have not been able to find a more current guide, but maybe I'm just not that good at searching.

Not many changes regarding authentication. There are two changes that I can spot straightaway, but it should be easily picked up if you try to follow the article.
1. "SSL" connection is no longer accepted by default. You need to use TLS connections.
2. The default context root has changed from /jazz to /ccm.

This may be the case from a straight IBM view, but quite a few things have changed, especially regarding the apache side of things. A lot of things are now deprecated, like the DefaulHttpclient.

It depends on which library you are using. I can see that RTC still ships the old HTTP Client library, along with a newer version. If you stick with the old version, I don't see why you can't follow the article.
