More fun with MT API

I wanted to try out Blogo, just because, but couldn't get it to work due to an invalid login. There is no console window for debugging, unlike Ecto. Anyway, as usual the Movable Type help is no help. Many mentions of using the web services password. And this is true, you do have to use your web services password.


So for the avoidance of doubt, this is not the Typepad/TypeKey token buried somewhere that can never be found again:

but instead is the individual user web services password (not the normal in through the front door web console password) that is also buried under System Overview > Users:

select the desired user, go to Profile and then Reveal the Web Services Password:

Sheesh. One day I'm gonna port to Wordpress.
