Account Login -- "Upgrade required."

[joshbirnholz]

Everything is good up until the Account Login step at /v1/Account/Login.

I get returned an error message saying "Upgrade required." I assume this has to do with the new version of the Nintendo Switch Online app? At the least, I tried replacing all references to version 1.0.4 with 1.1.0 (which is the newest version) but then I get an "Invalid token." error on this step.

Any ideas?

@joshbirnholz This problem is still unsolved. Nintendo introduced a new parameter called f which we (me and at least a few others with Splatoon-related projects/APIs) can't figure out how to generate yet.

So, at the moment, the only way to get/generate a cookie used to access SplatNet 2 is through the app itself.

Just to update the conversation for anyone looking in the future…

See the s2s API docs for information on generating f.

…well, that is until a few hours ago today, when they changed the key used in the HMAC, so it doesn't generate valid tokens anymore. But I expect we'll get it working again soon, considering we did once before already… unless they changed more stuff we don't know about yet.

Updated the API docs in #10 to reflect the current state of the f parameter. If there's more progress on the s2s issue, I'll update again accordingly.

Heads up @ZekeSnider (and @joshbirnholz) that f generation is now fixed in splatnet2statink v1.4.0 & my API docs page updated.
