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.

这现在确实可以用了。我原以为必须使用“所有用户”选项，但现在你也可以选择“系统”作为用户，并仅为系统用户生成一个密钥。
