[lampi]

hi,

after the latest update of remote control some kind of api key is required. Can anybody tell me where I can get one? I tryed two evenings to solve this issue and didnt get it… pls help me…

[sdetweil]

@lampi why do you think an api key is required?

[lampi]

@sdetweil cause i have to change the config file and the guide says so

[sdetweil]

@lampi from the api/readme

Providing an API key is recommended; however, remains optional.

its for apps connecting to mirror… force THEM to have the api key…

additionally

If you ran the installer.sh script when you installed the module, a non-canoical UUID is generated for you to use; you can use this unique code,

or use any string you wish.

so, YOU make up the key string

the API key is for security - you don’t need it if you’re not needing that extra layer of security for remote control.
