API vs username and password.. scripting possible?

[mayflowertech]

          Did you get this resolved?  I have been using the module across many upgrades (well into 2023 versions) without issue. I am using the APIKey authentication method though, not username/password.

Would you be able to share how you set this up to use the api vs the username and password setup? Also did you automate the process? Thank you in advance
