Help for Aimeos

Hello,

We are using laravel as backed and using JSONAPIs on mobile applications. We are having issue on user session + login. Right now, we are having two stores and two different apps are running on individual store.

As we have both store live, so we are getting issues on old store users. Some users are getting unauthorised error when they to login into system to place an order. How do we handle case? As we don't have option to update password for them from admin or via JSON APIs. How do we allow user to reset their password ? Or if we can update same thing on aimeos admin side then also it will be helpful.

THANKS IN ADVANCE

Don't think it's a password issue but it may be an issue that the customers aren't assigned to the correct site due to a wrong siteid value in the "users" table. Please check if that value matches with the site the customer should be able to log in.

I dont think that site is the issue. If site is the issue, then it should return user not found.
But here, we are getting unauthorized error.

Thanks

How do we reset password for user, either via api or from admin?

In the admin backend, go to the Customer panel. In the detail view there's a password field for each customer.

Thanks for the help. Issue is resolved

Hi, do you mind me asking how you are handling sessions?

Obviously mobiles are stateless and creating baskets with no session is not possible.

TY

[edit]

Sorry, I should probably have said mobile "applications", ie. apps distributed via playstore or appstore.

hello, we have prepare api to get session token and save that token into cookies via okhttp lib method on android side. and same for ios.
So, whenever we start the application we are taking the latest token. By the time if token expired then aimeos will return new token, but if its not then we will get old token again. And once token will be retrieved we are checking the session with user. Either user is attached with the session or not (by calling custom details api end point). If it is attached with user , then API will return user details.

If API will not return any error, then we are doing login user API call again to attach user with session. Thanks

Hi traiyani75,

I think we're doing the same thing. Your session token is perhaps the bearer token issued by a guard, eg. laravel sanctum?

I have no issue authenticating api requests, and/or as you mention retrieving the customers details.

My only issue right now, is similar to another post you created, is that my basket isn't persisting as it relies on sessions until stored. Because the basket is split into several requirements (addresses, services, products, coupons etc) I was hoping to split my requests into steps similar to the website.

Is it possible for you to share a little more on how you managed this please?

Thank you
