Additional relevant information (e.g. frequency, ...)

already found the cause for this problem: in the 21.10.13 patch was a change to the "www/class/centreonAuth.class.php" on line 234 regarding the login requirements

it would be very helpful for not just us but i would say everyone, when a user who is only used for accessing the api is able to get a token but not able to reach the frontend because he doesn't need it

We can confirm this issue too. We are using a API Users for scripts which stop working on 21.10.13. We had to give the users the permissoin to reach the centreon front-end. Else we got the same error. The behavior should be changed as before.
