Logout via REST gives 'Invalid API Key' error

[jberd126]

When I try to logout from a previously logged in session via REST, I get an 'Invalid API Key' error.

Request:
http:// api.smugmug.com/hack/rest/?method=smugmug.logout&SessionID=XXXX

Response:
< rsp stat="fail">
< err code="18" msg="invalid API key" />
< /rsp>
According to the documenation only the Login commands should require the API key.

I am also getting the same error. This call (with a valid sid<SID>):

api.smugmug.com/hack/rest/?method=smugmug.logout&&SessionID=sid

Produces this response:

< ?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>< rsp stat="fail">
< err code="18" msg="invalid API key" />< /rsp>


I also tried passing the APIkey and the SessionID, and I also tried passing the APIkey instead of the SessionID. Nothing seems to work. It doesn't really effect my script, but I hate to leave all these open sessions behind. Any sugestions?

Thanks,
-Brian

I think this was fixed with the new Beta API release but I haven't tried it yet:

- fixed bug in logout, should work properly now
You need to call beta.mg to access the Beta APIs though: http://api.smugmug.com/hack/rest/beta.mg

Confirmed - it is fixed if you use the beta.
