API Key is required when calling /users/token

[Victor Espina]

Hi.

I am new to slimtimer and I'm trying to test de REST API with no luck.  I'm trying to send a POST request to http://slimtimer.com/users/token with the exact XML showed in the API help (but using my login data and API key) but I allways get the "API key is required" error message.

I have tried this from VFP using WinHttpRequest as well as XmlHttpRequest, and using the provided C# class but allways get the same result. Funny thing is that if tried the POST using an online REST API test tool, like Chrome's Postman or CURL or API Kitchen the call works pretty well and I get the user id and access token.

What I'm missing here?   The REST server does not allow calls from fat clients ?  By the way, I had enabled cross-domain calls in my Internet Security, just in case.

TIA

Well, I just found a post of a huy wich had the exact same problem and he resolved by passing authenticacion data via query string.  Any way, just wanted to highlight the fact that neither XML or YAML calls to users/token are working.  Here is the XML I was sending:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<request>

 <user>

  <email>email</email>

  <password>pwd</password>

 </user>

 <api-key>apikey</api-key>

</request>
