@radi8 how do you get a wasteof auth token for use with the API? sorry if this is a dumb question, i’ve never really worked with APIs before

Could I define a variable with res.token in } else { ?

don't forget to set the username and password (preferably to a value stored in a .env file if this is some sort of bot). if this is a website then disregard that advice and just use whatever the user’s username/password is. another consideration is that if you run this code on the client of a website, the username/password will be visible to anyone who does Ctrl+Inspect and looks at the Network Tab, so make sure you don't hardcode your username/password or anything.

you can also get session info btw using a GET request to the session endpoint to get details about the logged-in session (i don't know if this is important for your purposes)

fetch('https://api.wasteof.money/session',
      {
         method: 'GET',
         headers: { 'content-type': 'application/json', 'Authorization': "YOUR RES.TOKEN HERE" },
  })
  .then((response) => response.json())
  .then((res) => {
     if (res.error || res === {} || Object.keys(res).length === 0) {
       console.error(res)
       alert('an error occured. you may have entered the wrong password.')
     } else {
       // do something with res
     }
  })

which returns an object like:

{
    "user": {
        "name": "imadeanaccount",
        "id": "63fcf11ebac4b7a8034e1327",
        "bio": "Beta user, developer who made an account | :D | Follow to see more of my posts. ⭐",
        "verified": false,
        "permissions": {
            "admin": false,
            "banned": false
        },
        "beta": true,
        "color": "yellow",
        "links": [],
        "history": {
            "joined": 1677521182357
        }
    },
    "flags": {
        "isAdminImpersonating": false,
        "showRecoveryMessage": false
    }
}

if you are creating a client website or something this might be useful.

SyntaxError: Unexpected string (at fetch.js:10:13)

This is happening at:

body: JSON.stringify({

"YOUR USERNAME", ← here, stringify does not seem to be working

oh sorry! i made a mistake, this section shold be:

 body: JSON.stringify({
            "username": "YOUR USERNAME",
            "password": "YOUR PASSWORD"
         })

Well now it’s not doing anything :P

I’m having the console log res.token but it’s not logging anything

what type of site are you making? can you try pasting your code into the JS console of a wasteof tab cause it’s working for me there:
