Response:

{"token": "KrxwdpUjoTQcYmMISjQE2C4drmXMhn5w2gX0388UySdPYoEJkPa74nhZhg3iaj7w"}

Note: You should save this token in a cookie and use it in subsequent requests to identify the user via GET /:app/get/:token If might use the put request to add additional paramenters to the session. Just supply them in the body (see the POST request) and set the Content-Type to application/json.

Response:

{
    "id": "user123",
    "r": 1,  // The read counter for this session
    "w": 1,  // The write counter for this session
    "ttl": 86400,
    "idle": 273,  // The idle time since the previous request
    "ip": "192.168.99.22"
}
