Having trouble logging in via the API
 
I am trying to login using the login_login api, but keep getting invalid signature (this specifically: {"response":{"errormessage":["invalid_api_signature","Invalid API Signature"]}})

Below is the pattern I am following. Init works fine and returns various values that I then use in the Login method. For reference, the code is Classic ASP. What am I missing here?

Code:

vBulletinApiURL = "http://www.myurl.com/campus/api.php"
vBulletinUid = "myuid"
vBulletinPwd = "mypwd"
vBulletinApiKey = "xgZb1tyk"
vBulletinGUID = "99d50807-c642-4569-8f41-10ed978eb197"

Init()
Login()

Sub Init()
  dim url
  url = ToFormat("{0}?api_m=api_init&clientname=ham&clientversion=1.0&platformname=android&platformversion=4.0&uniqueid={1}", _
      Array(vBulletinApiURL, vBulletinGUID))

  dim objSrvHTTP: Set objSrvHTTP = Server.CreateObject ("Msxml2.ServerXMLHTTP.6.0")               
  objSrvHTTP.open "GET",url, false
  objSrvHTTP.send

  Dim apiRet: Set apiRet = JSON.parse(objSrvHTTP.responseText)

  strSecret = apiRet.secret
  strAccessToken = apiRet.apiaccesstoken
  strApiClientID = apiRet.apiclientid
  strApiVersion = apiRet.apiversion

  Set objSrvHTTP = nothing

End Sub

Sub Login()
  dim objSrvHTTP: Set objSrvHTTP = Server.CreateObject ("Msxml2.ServerXMLHTTP.6.0")
   
  ' the keys must be in sorted order
  dim strLoginString: strLoginString = ToFormat("api_m=login_login&vb_login_md5password={1}&vb_login_username={0}", _
              Array(vBulletinUid, MD5(vBulletinPwd)))

  ' convert everything with URLEncode (just in case)
  strAccessToken= Server.URLEncode(strAccessToken)
  strApiClientID= Server.URLEncode(strApiClientID)
  strSecret= Server.URLEncode(strSecret)               
  strApiVersion= Server.URLEncode(strApiVersion)

  dim strSignature: strSignature = strLoginString & strAccessToken & strApiClientID & strSecret& vBulletinApiKey
  strSignature = Server.URLEncode(MD5(strSignature))

  dim strApiRegInfo: strApiRegInfo = ToFormat("api_c={0}&api_s={1}&api_sig={2}&api_v={3}", _
    Array(strApiClientID, strAccessToken, strSignature , strApiVersion))

  dim strLoginRequest: strLoginRequest = ToFormat("{0}&vb_login_username={1}&vb_login_md5password={2}", _
    Array(strApiRegInfo, vBulletinUid, MD5(vBulletinPwd)))

  dim strUrl: strUrl = vBulletinApiURL & "?api_m=login_login"

  objSrvHTTP.open "POST", strUrl, false
  objSrvHTTP.setRequestHeader "Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
  objSrvHTTP.send strLoginRequest

  Response.Write("ret text: " & objSrvHTTP.responseText & "<br/>")

End Sub

Umm what are you trying to do exactly? I know you're trying to get a login system to work, but for what? From my understanding the API is for mobile use. If you're trying to login on a standard website there is much better ways to do it. The main problem seems to be that the directory isn't set.

great way to do it, and it works just the same on vB.
