There are significant changes from Cortex API version 1.x to 2.0.
To connect to Cortex 1.x, you used the url wss://emotivcortex.com:54321 In Cortex 2.0, you must use wss://localhost:6868
See Connecting to the Cortex API for details.
In Cortex 2.0, the user must login with EmotivID through the EMOTIV App. So, the API doesn't have a login or logout method anymore.
Third party applications must be approved by the user before using the Cortex API. See the new method requestAccess.
The method authorize doesn't accept "anonymous mode" anymore. You must provide a client id and client secret.
See Authentication for details.
Call the method controlDevice to connect a headset to Cortex. If the headset is not connected, then you can't create a session with this headset.
See Headsets for details.
