Both CMIS and web scripts can use tickets for authentication. So the answer is that you should grab a ticket and then use that to hit either CMIS or web script end points.

I do this a lot with little groovy utilities. You call /api/login to get a ticket, like this:

// Login to Alfresco
def client = new RESTClient(url)
def resp = client.get(path : ALF_SERVICE + '/api/login', query: ['u': userName, 'pw': password.toString(), 'format': 'json'])
assert resp.status == 200
def ticket = resp.data.data.ticket
println "Successfully logged in to Alfresco..."‍‍‍‍‍‍

Then once you have that ticket you can use it to make other calls.

For example, you might use CMIS to check for a folder:

// Leave the username as an empty string to auth with a ticketSession session = createCMISSession(url + CMIS_SERVICE, CMIS_BINDING, "", ticket);
Folder folder = findFolder(session, folderPath)

if (folder == null) {
  println "ERROR: Could not find: " + folderPath
  System.exit(0)
}

Folder findFolder(Session session, String folderPath) {
  Folder result = null;

  try {
    CmisObject folder = session.getObjectByPath(folderPath);
    if (folder != null && BaseTypeId.CMIS_FOLDER.equals(folder.getBaseTypeId())) {
      result = (Folder) folder;
    }
  } catch (CmisObjectNotFoundException confe) {
    println "ERROR: getObjectByPath threw a CmisObjectNotFoundException"
  }

  return result;
}‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Or you might use the Alfresco API to look for a site:

// Checking for presence of site
resp = client.get(path : ALF_SERVICE + '/api/sites/' + siteId, query: ['alf_ticket': ticket])
assert resp.status == 200‍‍‍
