OK this is a bit ridiculous. The FAQ does not specify how to use the API beyond listing a json parameter. If you send a curl command with that parameter the first search just returns "Logged In", and run another search and then you're temporarily IP banned site wide.
Having hair trigger sensitive security around API while not telling the user what the request should look like to not trigger that is just silly.

Think it was something around the Sec-Fetch-* headers that copying a request from browser via copy cURL included

- Havoc 5mo agoGood to know about the incognito toke - helpful. Yes, I saw the 3 auth try mentioned in the faq after this, that must have been what I was hitting with the experimenting. Anyway all good now
