    The Estimote Cloud API is authenticated primarily with an App ID and App Token pair
    (created in the Apps section of Estimote Cloud) sent as HTTP Basic credentials
    (curl -u APP_ID:APP_TOKEN). App-level OAuth 2.0 (authorization code) is available in
    private beta for third-party apps acting on behalf of other Estimote accounts; the
    resulting bearer access token is sent in the Authorization header.

      HTTP Basic authentication where the username is your Estimote App ID and the
      password is your App Token. Both are issued per-app in the Apps section of Estimote
      Cloud and act as login/password for programmatic access to your account's devices
      and attachments.
