[Wikitech-l] Re: Need help to login with pwb.py with a bot account
Hello T.Shrinivasan,
The relevant portion is {'result': 'Failed', 'reason': 'Incorrect username
or password entered. Please try again.'}.
You should not be using the same password that is used to log in to the web
UI. For a BotPassword, see the configuration steps at
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Pywikibot/BotPasswords.
Regards,
JJ

[Wikitech-l] Re: Need help to login with pwb.py with a bot account
This is interesting, 2-3 days I tried to use the mediawiki API from a bot
account and it was not successful. But when i tried to do the same from my
administrator account all the API was working fine.
I tried that on Mediawiki 1.35.2 on a fresh local installation.
