I have an existing external d/b application (entirely independent of J!) which lets users log into it using their J! login and password.
Currently, it just works by hashing the user entered password, directly reading the J! user database table to retrieve the password for the given username and comparing the two. Not elegant but it works.![;D]( "Grin")
It would obviously be better if it could use the J! API but I can't find anything in there that helps.
For example, GET users/{user_id} does not return the password.
Am I missing something, or is this not currently possible with the J4 API??
Thanks
