404 when trying to create an API key for system user

[OnceWas (Christopher Heald)]

I am trying to create an API key for our ‘system’ user. When I click on Generate from the system user’s admin page, I get no key, and a 404 error appears in the console. There is no entry in the Discourse log.

https://<site_url>/admin/users/-1/generate_api_key Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found)

I am able to generate API keys for other users.

I am running v1.4.0.beta9.

Can we repro this @sam? Could be legit.

It looks like a routing bug but has a very easy workaround.

Generate a global key and just pass the username system with the API call.

Esto ahora funciona realmente. Pensé que tendrías que usar la opción “todos los usuarios”, pero ahora también puedes seleccionar “sistema” como usuario y generar una clave solo para el usuario del sistema.
