Register

First, register a user to get the authorization token. You need the authorization token to access /reports, /statistics, and /covid-19 endpoints. You must supply an email and password.

import webbscrapers_api

webbscrapers_api.register("[e-mail]", "this_is_my_password")

Login

If you have lost the authorization token, you can login and get the token again.

import webbscrapers_api

webbscrapers_api.login("[e-mail]", "this_is_my_password")
