> Ambari 1.4.2 added CSRF prevention by default.
> This means that non-GET calls now require the "X-Requested-By" header.  The API reference doc should be updated to reflect this change.
> Also, we should mention that this behavior can be turned off (at the risk of allowing CSRF) by modifying /etc/ambari/conf/ambari.properties and setting api.csrfPrevention.enabled=false.
