GQC API auth via token:

Programmstart:

  • weder token noch user credentials -> nothing
  • user credential, but no auth token -> post log_in to fetch token
  • auth token in settings -> assume validity of token

on "403 Forbidden" reply (or "401 Unauthorized"?):

  • minimal solution:

    • show error in status message
    • remove token from settings (successful API calls need restart of application)

  • improved solution:

    • ErrorDialog "Maybe the token is invalid. Retry login?"

OnCredentialsChanged:

  • remove old token
  • post log_in to fetch new token
