Not implemented in API yet?

@pbb72 no it's not.

In the back-end I use the devise plugin in combination with a plugin called simple_token_authentication.
As described here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/35222260/unauthorized-request-using-devise-authentication-methods-as-api-for-resetting-pa this is not a good approach for an API, since it meant to be used in web-applications that can use cookies, not for an API.

That part of the API must be rewritten whenever we are past the proof of concept/prototype phase.
I the mean time we have two options: we can manage users (add users, reset passwords, etc) manually with commands in the back-end that interact directly with the database, OR we can open up for these functions in the db.biocaching.com web app, which uses the devise plugin and where these functions will work.

No problem, it's not high-priority functionality for the app at this moment. I'll implement in the app whenever the functionality is in the API.
