CB login authentication token

yes I tried to use this combination, so the user would add a cb_token field and the API token would be generated. That seems a nice way to do it.

However the issue that I have is that the cb_api_token field seems to be changed at each display of the user profile so I cannot get the user to be retrieved in the autoaction.

Do you have an idea to keep the cb_api_token until the cb_token is changed by the user ? and also can I use an ajax display in profile edit when the cb_token is edited to display the cb_api_token updated ?
cb_token: text /validation one word only with letters and numbers

cb_api_token :
return ( new \Joomla\CMS\Encrypt\Aes( $_CB_framework->getCfg( 'secret' ) . ':[cb_token]]' ) )->encryptString( (string) \CBLib\Application\Application::MyUser()->getUserId() );


autoaction user code:
return (int) ( new \Joomla\CMS\Encrypt\Aes( $_CB_framework->getCfg( 'secret' ) . ':[cb_token]' ) )->decryptString( '[get_token]' );

Generated tokens like that will change on every display. The old token will still work though. You could use CB Auto Actions to store the result to a field I suppose using a Code action. Example as follows.

$user->set( 'cb_api_token', ( new \Joomla\CMS\Encrypt\Aes( $_CB_framework->getCfg( 'secret' ) . ':[cb_token]' ) )->encryptString( (string) \CBLib\Application\Application::MyUser()->getUserId() ) );

$user->store();

That'd store it to cb_api_token field. You'd do this on profile update and registration triggers.

I tried your last suggestion in a code autoaction:
code : PHP
user : automatic
access : everybody
output : none or silent
format function : yes

But I cannot get it to save something in cb_api_token which I changed to be a read only text field

any idea of what's wrong ?

What triggers are you using? You'd probably need to use the below to deal with backend/frontend profile edit and registration.

onAfterUserUpdate
onAfterUpdateUser
onAfterUserRegistration
onAfterNewUser

yes exactly what I use, but something fails somewhere.
The field cb_api_token is on a tab which is only displayed to CBsubs plans and is restricted now to special group. Can it be an issue ?

The example provided above directly stores to the user object. It does not care about permissions. I did not test it however so it could have errors. Might be the $_CB_framework usage. Try adding global $_CB_framework; above the field set. Example as follows.
global $_CB_framework;

$user->set( 'cb_api_token', ( new \Joomla\CMS\Encrypt\Aes( $_CB_framework->getCfg( 'secret' ) . ':[cb_token]' ) )->encryptString( (string) \CBLib\Application\Application::MyUser()->getUserId() ) );

$user->store();
