logout
The logout API ends the current session and cancels the authentication cookie.
URL
/qcbin/authentication-point/logout
Remarks
Logging off ends the session by setting the session cookie to expired.
Caution: When a session ends, all locks are released. Therefore, if an application connects to a new session, discard all data downloaded previously. If you do not, a PUT operation can overwrite changes made by another user while the entity was not locked.
