Create protected note using backend api

[adamcodemaker]

Hi
I am trying to create note with isProtected set to true.

await api.createNewNote({
            parentNoteId: "somenoteid",
            title: 'sometitle',
            content: 'somecontent',
            type: 'text',
            isProtected: true
 });

and there is an error

Error: No data key!

Is it even possible?
I see that there is loginToProtectedSession function but it is not exposed to backend api.

Hi, it is possible to create protected notes, in fact your code snippet works, but at the time you run it, protected session must be active, otherwise there's no encryption key which could be used to encrypt (protect) the note.

It's not possible to login/enter protected session programmatically since for that you would have to store the password on some unprotected place.
