difficulty getting started about dashboard

[mathematikoi]

i keep getting Unauthorized (401): Invalid credentials provided too with no clue what is happening!

i believe my problem was some sort of cookies in the browser, which was perhaps set from previous attempts or previous versions of the dashboard.

If you're doing a major upgrade then you should always clean up the cookies or use incognito mode. Our docs contain up-to-date information on how to install, open, and access Dashboard with information on how to create an example user. If you are doing a clean install and using incognito mode then I don't see how it could not work.

As for the skip login feature, we will not be bringing it back since the API no longer supports acting on behalf of itself. It is mandatory to provide credentials that API can use to authenticate and authorize all actions. The code that was allowing API to use its' own permissions has been removed. It was done mostly for security reasons but also to simplify overall architecture and multi-container setup.
