Development made easy: IDrive EVS APIs

Account Validation

Validate your IDrive account by using the validate API.

Syntax:
idevsutil --validate --user=<username> --password-file=<account password>
  • Username:
    IDrive username. If you do not have a valid username Sign up with IDrive.
  • --password-file=PATH_OF_PSWD_FILE
    Reads account password from the specified file. Alternately, you can directly set the password using
    --password-file=<account password>

Code:
idevsutil -–validate --user=john --password-file="MyPassword"
The above mentioned code can be executed using any programming language across any platform (Windows, Mac and Linux).
Output:
Sample XML output:

<tree message="SUCCESS" desc="VALID ACCOUNT" configstatus="NOT SET"/> Or

<tree message="SUCCESS" desc="VALID ACCOUNT" configstatus="SET" configtype="PRIVATE"/>


Note: If the configstatus="NOT SET" then use configureAccount API to configure your account with AES 256-bit encryption.
