[jipdroid]

hi,
according documetation
"The very first time you access the admin, you’ll be given a chance to create your first admin account."
but it has not realized.
is there anyway to get it?
i cant login into admin web,even changing api-umbrella.yml with this configuration
web:
admin:
initial_superusers:
- [email protected]
username_is_email: true
auth_strategies:
enabled:
- local
password_length_min: 6
password_length_max: 72

thanks in advanced

I have the same problem.

Here's my api-umbrella.yml (I am using it in a Docker container which is always rebuilt):

web:
  admin:
    auth_strategies:
      enabled:
        - local
    initial_superusers:
      - [email protected]
    username_is_email: true
    password_length_min: 6
    password_length_max: 72

What password should I use to login at localhost/admin/login?

Here's what's in the DB:

$ docker exec -it api-umbrella /bin/bash
root@96f2ef85ad19:/# /opt/api-umbrella/embedded/bin/mongo --port 14001
> use api_umbrella
switched to db api_umbrella
> db.admins.find().pretty()
{
	"_id" : "5337e5e3-73fa-42f1-bf73-fb239e4ffd59",
	"updated_at" : ISODate("2019-02-20T14:01:53Z"),
	"username" : "[email protected]",
	"authentication_token" : "3f6QQTZ6qtZ6eCuH61gcVlll87pA9u9jdjuh3juQ",
	"registration_source" : "seed",
	"created_at" : ISODate("2019-02-20T14:01:53Z"),
	"superuser" : true
}

Comment out the initial_superusers section, and it will ask you to create an admin account

@DusanMadar

What password should I use to login at localhost/admin/login?

This is a good question and I'm also failing to find the answer and no, @science695's comment is not helpful as it applies to different setting up workflow.

Closest I've found is from #368 (comment)

Alternatively, you can also create other initial admin accounts using the web.admin.initial_superusers configuration.
Then you can use the email password reset functionality to set a new password.

Interestingly, the authentication_token is present, so I'd expect to be able to issue the REST API request to (re)set the password, but it requires two things:

1. Your API key via one of the supported methods.
2. AND an admin token via the X-Admin-Auth-Token header.

and the 1. seems missing.
