# CyberArk AAM Testzertifikat-Authentifizierung

Eine REST API ist eine API, die den Designprinzipien des Architekturstils REST (Representational State Transfer) entspricht. REST APIs werden daher manchmal auch als RESTful APIs bezeichnet.

Eine bequeme Möglichkeit, CyberArks Rest API für AAM (Application Access Manager) zu testen, ist über ***Windows Powershell*** oder ***Powershell ISE***.

```powershell
#Change location into your personal certificate store.
Set-Location "Cert:\CurrentUser\My\"

#Store the certificate with the thumbprint <your certificate thumbprint> in a variable ($Cert).
$Cert = Get-ChildItem | Where-Object {$_.Thumbprint -eq "<your thumbprint>"}

#Then the Invoke-RestMethod -Method Get...
Invoke-RestMethod -Method Get -Uri "<your Cyberark PasswordVault>AIMWebService/api/Accounts" -Certificate $cert -Body @{AppID = "<Your APP ID>"; Safe = "<Your Safe>"; Object = "<Object name>"}
```

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.devolutions.net/rdm/de/knowledge-base/how-to-articles/cyberark-aam-test-certificate-authentication.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
