Fetch an API key (development only)
POST https://lada.co.toya.net.pl/api/v1/dev_fetch_api_key
For easy testing of mobile apps and other clients and against Zulip
development servers, we support fetching a Zulip API key for any user
on the development server without authentication (so that they can
implement analogues of the one-click login process available for Zulip
development servers on the web).
Note: This endpoint is only available on Zulip development
servers; for obvious security reasons it will always return an error
in a Zulip production server.
Usage examples
curl -sSX POST https://lada.co.toya.net.pl/api/v1/dev_fetch_api_key \
--data-urlencode username=iago@zulip.com
Parameters
username string required
Example: "iago@zulip.com"
The email address for the user that owns the API key.
