Unknown user

Hi

Thanks for the plugin; it all works great, and when I test it in postman it all works fine.

However, if I try to “login” within a wordpress function (using the exact credentials in the body I used in postman), I get an “unknown username” error. I am guessing I am not perhaps calling the login endpoint correctly?

Here’s how I am calling it (I have omitted error checking lines for clarity):

$url = 'https://testsite.net/wp-json/api-bearer-auth/v1/login';
$apw = 'a-test-app-password-for-admin-user-called-testuser' ;

$args = array( ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
? ? 'body' => array(
? ? ? ? "username" => "testuser",
? ? ? ? "password" ?=> $apw,
? ? ? ? "client_name" => "api-bearer",
? ? ),
);

$response = wp_remote_post( $url, $args );
$body = wp_remote_retrieve_body( $response );
$data = json_decode( $body );    // Error checking gives the unknown username error?

$bt = isset( $data->access_token ) ? $data->access_token : null;
$rt = isset( $data->refresh_token ) ? $data->refresh_token : null;

Like I said, in postman, doing a POST to the URL above with a body of:

{ “username”: “testuser”, “password”: “a-test-app-password-for-admin-user-called-testuser”, “client_name”: “api-bearer” }

…works fine. Any ideas where I am messing up, please?

Thanks, Adam
