What credentials are you using? It should be the username you use to login and the API key you generated for your user, not your password.
The command help states:
Credential object containing token id as the username and token secret as the password
As per the API documents:
Authentication to use the API is primarily done using API Tokens. Once the "Access System API" permission has been assigned to a user, a "API Tokens" section should be visible when editing their user profile. Choose "Create Token" and enter an appropriate name and expiry date, relevant for your API usage then press "Save". A "Token ID" and "Token Secret" will be immediately displayed. These values should be used...

Thank you for your reply,
When I run: Connect-BookStackAPI -Url 'xxxx.xxxxxxx.xxx' -Credential yyyyyyyyy
With yyyyyyyyy as my bookstack username (I've also tried the email address associated with the account with the same result) I get a powershell credential pop-up window asking for a password - when I enter my bookstack password I get the following message:
Invoke-WebRequest : {"error":{"code":401,"message":"No authorization token found on the request"}}
At line:74 char:25

Sorry, it's not your username, it's your token ID as I quoted originally:
Credential object containing token id as the username and token secret as the password
On the Edit Profile page of BookStack, when you created a new token you were shown two values - your ID and Secret. In order to connect with the -Credential
parameter you need to use the Token ID and Token Secret values.
Connect-BookStackAPI -Url 'xxx' -Credential (Get-Credential)
When prompted enter your Token ID as the username and Token Secret as the password.
You could also pass in your ID as part of the connection command:
Connect-BookStackAPI -Url 'xxx' -Credential (Get-Credential {TokenID})
and then enter the Token Secret as the password
from psbookstack.
Hi,
Thank you again for your help with this.
I am still doing something wrong; I have my Token ID and Secret - when I try with the command below, I get the following output:
Connect-BookStackAPI -Url xxxxxx.xxxx.xxx -Credential (Get-Credential {xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx})
Get-Credential : Cannot process argument transformation on parameter 'Credential'. userName
At line:1 char:76
- ... om.au -Credential (Get-Credential {xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx})

- CategoryInfo : InvalidData: (:) [Get-Credential], ParameterBindingArgumentTransformationException
- FullyQualifiedErrorId : ParameterArgumentTransformationError,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.GetCredentialCommand
And I get the following when using the Connect-BookStackAPI -Url 'xxx' -Credential (Get-Credential) command:
Connect-BookStackAPI -Url 'xxxxx.xx.xxx' -Credential
At line:1 char:62
- ... onnect-BookStackAPI -Url 'xxxxx.xx.xxx' -Credential <PSCreden ...

Maybe I have an issue with my PowerShell?
from psbookstack.
Try this:
$cred = Get-Credential
Connect-BookStackAPI -Url 'xxx' -Credential $cred
using your token id as the username and token secret as the password
What version of PowerShell are you using?
from psbookstack.
Hi,
PowerShell Version:
5.1.22000.2003
When run the commands you suggested, I get the following output from the second command:
Invoke-WebRequest : {"error":{"code":401,"message":"No authorization token found on the request"}}
At line:74 char:25

OK, try the following command (not sure if windows has curl
)
curl -k --request GET --url https://{url}/api/books --header 'Authorization: token <token_id>:<token_secret>'
Putting in your token id and secret as required.
Can you also double check that the user account associated with the token has role access to the API
from psbookstack.
Hi,
Thank you for your response.
User has 'Access System API' ticked in their role assignment.
Output from command below:
PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> curl -k --request GET --url https://xxxxxxx/api/books --header 'Authorization: token xxx:xxx'
Invoke-WebRequest : A parameter cannot be found that matches parameter name 'k'.

You need to use actual curl
, not the PowerShell alias of it.
