Thanks Vincent!
I saw that document. I thought that is to authenticate to the website and I was not sure if Kerberos authentication is supported for accessing via XWiki’s REST APIs as this document does not say that: http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Features/XWikiRESTfulAPI.
Do you know if Kerberos authentication is supported for accessing via APIs?
See http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Features/XWikiRESTfulAPI#HAuthentic... So the answer is no, unless you authenticate first to XWiki and keep the cookies. Thanks -Vincent
Thanks,

Hi Amrita,

I looked at XWiki's RESTful API documentation which talks about two types of authentication: HTTP BASIC Auth and XWiki session.
Do you now if latest or future version of XWiki API can support Kerberos authentication?
A quick googling for “xwiki kerberos” gave me this link:
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Authentication#HKerberos...
Does it help?
Thanks
