Doc on report API wrong about user name #310

Closed oliver-gramberg closed 6 years ago

oliver-gramberg commented 6 years ago

Doc on report API says, "The API token is the user name and the string 'api_token' is the password." That seems not quite right.

Yes I remember this being a bit odd, but this is how it works, whether it looks a bit funny or not ;) Are you having trouble with it? The password of 'api_token' is just indicating to the API that the username is actually a token and not a username. I think it's this way round so that the username is always some kind of unique identifier, rather than the username being 'api_token' and the token being in the password field.

doc describes how it works in current api version.
