Create API key from within a plugin

[pünktchen 704]

Is there an interface or method to create an api key from within a NetCore plugin?

In the SessionService there is an authKeys endpoint. This might be something.

You can POST it GET.

Yes so it is the AuthKeys endpoint in sessionService. You can create an app with POST.

 

Then use GET, to get the apps API Key that is auto generated

Thanks, but my question is if it's possible without the json api. Just pure C#

I don't see one you're right.

IHttpClient

                using (await HttpClient.Post(
                        new HttpRequestOptions
                        {
                            Url = "/Auth/Keys?App=" + app.Name,
                            CancellationToken = CancellationToken.None,
                            EnableHttpCompression = false,
                        })
                    .ConfigureAwait(false))
                {
 

Does that work?

Mmh, but to send this post request i already have to authenticate myself with an API key or not?

[chef 1849]

not inside a plugin you don't

[pünktchen 704]

Wow, didn't know that.

So i asume that it also was no mistake by you that you didn't provide a host and port in the request?

Well thats the thing I'm not sure about. It would have to be tested.

 

The ApiClient object would already be authenticated. I'm pretty sure.

 

EDIT: upon further inspection... I might not be correct.

Okay, maybe some insights from @@Luke can help here.
