Authenticate to unlinked device.

[foxt]

Has there been any investigation on how to authenticate to devices that are not linked to a Google account, and how would one link to a Google account? A CLAT is only generated once a device is linked to an account and it doesn't accept no CLAT for an answer.

As it turned out, I was attempting to use port 8008 (which is default on the swagger thing), which rejects all authentication,.

I'm unsure if simply switching to HTTPs port fixes this

Hm I haven't really looked at what an unlinked device does. All calls that we've seen over HTTPS (on port 8443) requires a token that is linked to a Google account. Maybe this token is optional when unlinked, idk, will try it out sometime (please post if you do).

I've got an unlinked device, and endpoints that supposedly require authentication seem to be open on it.
