Topic: API Authentication

==== REQUIRED BASIC INFO OF YOUR IREDMAIL SERVER ====
- iRedMail version (check /etc/iredmail-release): 0.9.4
- Deployed with iRedMail Easy or the downloadable installer? Downloadable
- Linux/BSD distribution name and version: Ubuntuxxx
- Store mail accounts in which backend (LDAP/MySQL/PGSQL): mysql
- Web server (Apache or Nginx):nginx
- Manage mail accounts with iRedAdmin-Pro? yes
- [IMPORTANT] Related original log or error message is required if you're experiencing an issue.
====

Is there a way to allow API login with Basic Auth or other methods instead of passing username and password as URL parameters? I didn't see API examples in the doc.

Re: API Authentication

If your API endpoint is protected with https, it's fine to submit username/password with https. I don't think there's much difference with http basic auth.
