      @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.

        The "E" in "Javascript" stands for "Easy"
