Thank you Adam!

And after the authentication, will I get any information (like some tokens), that I will use in the http call?  To tell the chef-server that I have been authenticated?

Sure - you need to just create a new client credential, and then set
it to be an administrator.

See the 'register' and 'authenticate' methods here:
