one option can be as below

1. Authenticate and write cookie in text file
2. use cookie from file to call api.

user@machine:~/git/datahub/docker$ curl -i -c cookie1.txt -d '{"username":"datahub", "password":"datahub"}' -H 'Content-Type: application/json' http://localhost:9001/authenticate
HTTP/1.1 200 OK

@cptran777 let’s update the doc to include a section on this. A few screenshots will help.
