This login method allows you to authenticate with the web service API. A SessionID will be returned and placed in a cookie, if cookies are enabled. If cookies are enabled, then the sessionId in the cookie will be read allowing access to the rest of the API. If cookies are not enabled, then the sessionId will need to passed on the query string as part of the URL. NOTE: If you are not using cookies, the sessionId will need to be passed as part of the request with the key of SessionId.
