I had the error above because I tried to use an username and password for another account, my bad :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:. I was able to fix it by logging into my ouath account and using the cookies to get the session key. Is there a way I can get my account a username and password?

Hi Quentin,

I'm glad you figured this out. For the moment it's not possible to get a password and username, but it's in our plans. We'll update you here when this is the case.

Thanks.
