My apologies for opening topic.

Problem was that my development setup point to http not https instance of discource.

When I switched to https endpoint it start working.

I get confused because some of api endpoints woking over http but this on does not.

For future readers here how i logout users by C#

```plaintext
             var url = $"/admin/users/{user.user.id}/log_out";
            using var formData = new MultipartFormDataContent{
{ new StringContent(_forumConfigModel.ApiKey), “api_key” },
{ new StringContent(_forumConfigModel.User), “api_username” }
};

var response = await _httpClient.PostAsync(url, formData);

```
