Use the attached script to retrieve your account authhash. This script calls the /user/login REST API endpoint, which is documented here. As it is likely that you will be writing your application in a language other than POSIX shell, this example shows how to call the /user/login API endpoint and extract the account authhash from the returned JSON data. You need to get the value of the "service_authhash" attribute.
This script works on Linux and macOS.
Open a Terminal Window, cd to the folder where you downloaded the script, then make the script executable:
chmod +x connectd_get_authhash.sh
Execute the script. It will request your remote.it account username and password. After a few seconds it returns a login token (which you don't need here) and your account authhash (which you do).

Please enter your remote.it Username (e-mail address):
my-email@domain.com
Please enter your remote.it password:
Your temporary login token is: f01xxxx2e3151339ee2b2efbxxxx2ead
Your login auth_hash is: 5F6F7123456A34E92C11667F2987654B59392CF4
.

The token is temporary and can be used for other REST API calls. The authhash does not expire.
