    Question

    How can I find the db_key value to be used for patron_homedb in RESTful API requests?

    Answer

    DB_KEY is stored in the VOYAGER_DATABASES table.

    1. Log into the database as the read-only user (ro_xxxdb / ro_xxxdb).
    2. Use the following query to retrieve the db_key value for your local database
    SELECT db_key
FROM voyager_databases
WHERE db_code='LOCAL';
