Hi,
I have been working in several features that require a new WebService (v6). One of the things it has its a password for any modification (Import, Create, etc). It only allows Export (which is read-only and only used in the clients) without password.
Given that the edit features are only used in the Editor, then the password is never saved into the build, that way, no one can use the WebService to modify the localization data. Just read it (which is what the game client does anyway).
This is working in v6 with a bunch of other things. But it will take a bit of time before I finish the rest of the futures needed for v6.
Said that, what I'm going to do, its port the password feature into v5 and release it in the next beta.
Hopefully, I will have that by tomorrow in v2.8.7b3.
Once you download that version from the beta folder, you will need to delete your current WebService and install it again, so that the plugin gets the updated v5 script.
Hope that helps,
Frank

Hi Frank,
Thanks for the quick answer!
Honestly, I didn't think there'd be a fix that early; I was just flagging a security issue.
From what I see a password-protected edit access seems to do the trick!
I'll check the beta folder for the new version and try it out as soon as it's available. I'll keep you posted if issues occur with the beta build.
Thanks!

2.8.7b3 is now in the beta folder.
Remember to delete the old WebService and install it again to access the code.
Hope that helps,
