Login user with API v4 endpoint

Troubleshooting
1

Hello, i want to connect my users seamlessly to my server by using the login endpoint but I don’t understand what data I should pass in parameters. Could anyone help me by showing an example of what a basic payload should look like?

Hi Mattéo,

please find some curl examples below (one with a valid password, the other one with an invalid one to also see the different responses):

# curl -sX POST -d '{ "login_id": "username", "password": "invalid" }' https://mm.yourdomain.tld/api/v4/users/login  | jq .
{
  "id": "api.user.login.invalid_credentials_email_username",
  "message": "Enter a valid email or username and/or password.",
  "detailed_error": "",
  "request_id": "sfthnmf84jdnid8rcstfkwj8oy",
  "status_code": 401
}

# curl -sX POST -d '{ "login_id": "username", "password": "valid" }' https://mm.yourdomain.tld/api/v4/users/login  | jq .
{
  "id": "<userid>",
  "create_at": 1658807802080,
  "update_at": 1684162956787,
  "delete_at": 0,
  "username": "username",
  "auth_data": "",
  "auth_service": "",
  "email": "your@mail.tld",
[...]
