    api user: frontend access disabled = no api access ?

    Hi,

    today we switched the authentication from internal to LDAP. All users are working good, except the api user.

    When I put him in the group "No access to the frontend" with "Frontend access"=Disabled and my api group with "Frontend access"=Internal the api access is denied:

    pyzabbix.ZabbixAPIException: ("Error -32602: Invalid params., Login name or password is incorrect. while sending [...]

    When I put him only in the api group, then it works fine. But then he also has access to the GUI, what I actually don't like that much.

    Before the change to LDAP it worked fine.

    Any "best practise" on api access Management?

    Greetings,
    Phil

    BUMP !
    Old thread, but still accurate.
    Any solution to create an "API only" user, without access to the GUI ?
