= Client to Server methods =
----
=== getChallenge ===
Request a 32 byte challenge used to generate a authentication digest.
Request message fields:
{{{
None
}}}
Reply message fields:
{{{
challenge bin required 32 bytes of random challenge to be used in next authentication request from client.
}}}
----
=== authenticate ===
Request message fields:
{{{

}}}

}}}
----
=== setAsync ===
Switch the session into asynchronous mode.
When a session is in this mode the client will get continuous updates from the server about channels and tags.
This also includes creation and deletion of channels and tags.
An interactive application that presents the user with information about channels and tags would probably want to switch to this mode.
Request message fields:
{{{
None

Reply message fields:

=== getEvent ===
----
=== subscribe ===
Request subscription to the given channel. A request for a subscription is always successful.
When the server is ready to transmit data it will first send a 'subscriptionStart' message.
Request message fields:
{{{
channelId int required ID for channel.
subscriptionId int required Subscription ID. Selected by client. This value is not interpreted by the server in any form.
The value is used from now on in all messages related to the subscription.
