We are using moodle 3.4 webservices, while all the other webservice functions we have figured out the parameters to pass to the API request, there is core_auth_confirm_user that keeps giving error.
Based on the API documents I parsed the following request:
Meteoruser is an existing user in the DB, and the API token & secret are verified correct. Is my format not right?
Hi Karishma,
unfortunately, I do not know your tool, from which the screenshot comes. I have attached a small example that works in an PHP environment. Please check it. Maybe it helps.
Best regards

Thanks so much, I will try this script.
BTW i am using Postman tool, would you know how to run this API endpoint via postman?
I really think I am missing the correct parameters. Where is the secret password stored for this API?
Hello, maybe not an issue now but in case anyone else is looking for this answer...
The secret is created on user creation and stored in the user database table (in a field called secret). This secret would normally be part of a users confirmation email.
So for dev purposes, you would need to either get the secret from the email or directly from the database (I don't think they are displayed in the admin anywhere, but I could be wrong)
how to get secret ?
