After synology upgrade to DSM 7, the _initialize_api_sid fails on

Traceback (most recent call last):

Based on WebAPi documentation it seems like the requested API method doesn't exist.

I've bumped the SYNO.API.Auth to 7 and changed the login method from "Login" to "login" and it started working. Looks like we need some api discovery to setup proper parameters.
