Error when accessing the /user/token-auth endpoint

Technical Help

When calling (POST call) the above endpoint to get a user’s token, i get the error:

{"detail":"Method \"GET\" not allowed."}

Also, i noticed, in Postman, that the original POST call was getting redirected to a GET call. Is this intended or a bug or some other issue?

Update:

Experienced the same issue with a database on baserow.io

Any feedback regarding this bug?

Hey @shrey ,

Sorry for the delay.

Can you tell me the exact endpoint you are querying? Are you perhaps querying without a trailing slash?

Hi @nigel ,
this is the request:

curl --location --request POST 'https://api.baserow.io/api/user/token-auth' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data-raw '{
    "username": "my-username",
    "password": "my-password"
}'

Just tried, it does work with the trailing slash.

Glad that it works. I’ve created this issue to track this as I think we could make the API experience a bit nicer than what happens currently when a trailing slash is missed: API access with trailing slash should give nicer error or just work (#892) · Issues · Bram Wiepjes / baserow · GitLab
