Hi hillel,

I am am sorry i can`t follow.
I can see there is a API_SECRET in .env file, no API-TOKEN nor API-PASSWORD
And how to do this?
Could you please tell me more?
Thanks

No worries, happy to help… The token is in the tokens table in the database and the password would be your user’s password. Depending on your version you may be able to create a token on Settings > Account Management.

That said I’m not able to reproduce the error you’re seeing, is the rest of the site working correctly?

11

Well, there is no Creat Token on Setting > Account Management

In that case you’d need to get the token from tokens table in the database

When will this version be available to hosted customers? Also, I am spending a lot of time integrating with your API. Will changes in your API in the future break existing API integrations such as the ones we are working on building now? This is the biggest reason we are leaving Freshbooks, they built a new API a while back and basically broke all our integrations we spent a LONG time writing and that we depended on. Thanks for any info you can provide.

Best case end of this year/worst case early next year.

The v5 API is based on v4 however there will be breaking changes to support new functionality.

17

Will the breaking changes be documented so I can fix my integration?

18

We probably won’t be able to provide a full list of all changes but we’ll try to explain any major changes. Again the v5 API is based on v4, it will be mostly the same.

19

Thanks! Looking forward to using the beta. Will there be a proposal module? We used it in v4.

Thanks!

Daniel

Once we have a stable v5 release we plan to make it available on Softaculous.

To upgrade now you’d need to manually install the new version.
