Phone apps sign in to FreshRSS with an API password. It's separate from your Terrarium password, and FreshRSS doesn't have one for you until you set it. Everyone in a household sets their own.
Set your API password
- Open FreshRSS from its card on your dashboard.
- Press the gear icon at the top right and choose Profile.
- Under External access via API, type a password into API password.
- Press Submit in that section. FreshRSS says "Your password has been modified".
If you forget it, set a new one the same way.
Your sign-in details
- Server address:
https://{username}-freshrss.getterrarium.app/api/greader.php - Username: your Terrarium username
- API password: the one you just set
In a household, the server address carries the account holder's username, and the username is your own.
