MMM-remote-control api key
- 
 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… 
- 
 @lampi why do you think an api key is required? 
- 
 @sdetweil cause i have to change the config file and the guide says so 
- 
 @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. 
- 
 @sdetweil thank you! It worked :) I just had to delet the config line
