Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/go-shiori/shiori/issues/1120

Data

Shiori version: 1.7.4
Database Engine: SQLite
Operating system: macOS ("linux arm64")
CLI/Web interface/Web Extension: my own app

Describe the bug / actual behavior

no API token visible in the UI

Expected behavior

API token should be easily obtainable

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Login
Look for API token

Notes

Workaround is to use CLI: github.com/go-shiori/shiori@d86c9cc650/docs/Usage.md (L180)
or a version similar that works for your OS (macOS grep is different)

You could install jq to parse the response JSON by

token=$(curl -s -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"username": "'"$Username"'" , "password": "'"$Password"'", "remember": true}' $Shiori_URL/api/v1/auth/login | jq .message.token | tr -d '"')
