REST is stateless so you should not rely on session, hence you can use auth.settings.allow_basic_login = True
see here http://web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/10#Access-Control for proper (as per RFC) authentication challenge with realm use: @auth.basich(basic_auth_real=<True|"any string">) An alternative is to pass an argument or a parameter with authencation info and use auth.login_bare Anyway you must pass authentication info with each call since being the service stateless the server has no way to recognize the client. mic 2013/5/27 Ray (a.k.a.
