Hi! Do you by any chance know how to implement the encrypted authentication correctly? The DS apps seem to be using SYNO.API.Encryption to call 'SYNO.API.Auth' afterwards.

[WesleyHilhorst]

What I know is that the public key should be used (in combination with key/token) to encrypt the auth SYNO.API.Auth parameters. But how that should be done is not documented anywhere exactly.

[N4S4]

Yeah the very little documentation is the problem, been asking Synology support for some api info or advanced docs but no response at all, I will see what I find! Btw thank you for letting me know!

[WesleyHilhorst]

I did find some code on Github that shows some form of encrypted authentication, I personally couldn't get it to work with so far:

[N4S4]

Well I see that a bit to digest, I had no idea about this.
Interesting and i will search more about this topic and move this conversation to a new branch (If I'll understand something)

[WesleyHilhorst]

Cool, looking forward to it!
