Description

Hello,

I'm just notifying that from version 3.8.0 of Matomo updating user is not working anymore because of:

https://developer.matomo.org/changelog

Breaking Changes
When changing the email address or the password through the UsersManager.updateUser API, a new parameter passwordConfirmation needs to be sent along with the request containing the current password of the user issuing the API request.

and since API is not using any credentials at all only token then IMHO is not usable in current state.

Adding new user using addUser is also needing new param: initialIdSite

- UsersManager.addUser (userLogin, password, email, alias = '', initialIdSite = '') [ No example available ]

Thanks
