Description of my issue:
Hi,
I'm currently trying to trigger informations and backups remotely. So I read your related documentation. I built my url and I get 401 error : Invalid login credentials. I verified my passwords and the way I do the challenge, it is ok.
What I'm not sure to undestand is the "key". What is it ? Is this something random I define ? If not, where does it come from ?
Here is what my url looks like : http://mydomain.ch/index.php?option=com_akeeba&view=json&format=component&json={"encapsulation":"1","body":"["challenge","test:ecc3f264d89e3e3ce92345ef2a0dbe18","key","test","method","getVersion"]"}
Thanks a lot.
