Authenticate using hashed password?

It seems like the "passwordmd5" and "password" (sha1) option has been removed a few years ago.

Does that mean authenticating is only possible through plain text passwords?
I would like to save my login data for my script and not re-login, each time sessions/tokens get flushed, what are my options?

Hi, yes the recommendation is to use SSL in place of the old password hashing mechanism.

If "calling the api on https" is what you mean, then thats what I'm already doing. The question was meant for security on the client. I don't want to save my credentials in plain text, but I guess that doesnt have anything to do with emby anymore. Thank you for clearing things up.
