2FA with API

[Marcelo Garcia]

Dear all

When I try to use the API, I get an error that "needs 2FA:"

```

ERROR:pyPreservica.common:Failed to create a password based authentication token. Check your credentials are correct
ERROR:pyPreservica.common:b'{"success":false,"message":"needs.2fa","user":"ea(...)","tenant":"xyz","continuationToken":"<token here>"}'

```

I tried to update the library:

```

pip install -U pypreservica,

```

it's still not working. It seems that the way to use credentials with the API didn't change.

Do I need to contact Preservica to change anything in my account to get the API working again?

Thank you

Best Regards

Marcelo

It looks like pyPreservica does not yet support the new authentication method with 2FA as this was introduced with 6.8

I will look into what is involved and get back to you.
