Gets the Conjur API key of a user given the LDAP username and password via HTTP Basic Authentication.

v1.0.0

Exchange your LDAP credentials for a Conjur API key. Once the API key is obtained, it may be used to inexpensively obtain access tokens by calling the Authenticate method. An access token is required to use most other parts of the Conjur API.

The Basic authentication-compliant header is formed by:

Concatenating the LDAP username, a literal colon character ':', and the password to create the authentication string.
Base64-encoding the authentication string.
Prefixing the authentication string with the scheme: Basic (note the required space).
Providing the result as the value of the Authorization HTTP header: Authorization: Basic <authentication string>.

Your HTTP/REST client probably provides HTTP basic authentication support.
