Login

URL Requires Auth HTTP Method
/api/v1/login no POST

Payload

Argument Example Required Description
user foo@bar.com OR myusername Required Your username or email
password my$up3erP@ssw0rd Required Your password

Notes

-> You will need to provide the authToken and userId for any of the authenticated methods.
-> If your user has two-factor(2FA) authentication enabled, you must send a request like this.
-> If LDAP authentication is enabled, you must maintain the login in the same way as you normally do. Similarly if 2FA is enabled for an LDAP user. Everything stays the same.

Example Call - As Form Data

curl http://localhost:3000/api/v1/login \
     -d "user=myusername&password=mypassword"
curl http://localhost:3000/api/v1/login \
     -d "user=my@email.com&password=mypassword"

curl -H "Content-type:application/json" \
      http://localhost:3000/api/v1/login \
      -d '{ "user": "my@email.com", "password": "mypassword" }'

Example Call - When two-factor(2FA) authentication is enabled
