Backand: Sign user in immediately after registering?

Question

Having trouble doing this - is it even possible?

Sign-up Email Verification is off, and I'm doing this in the config:

BackandProvider.setAppName( 'test' );
BackandProvider.runSigninAfterSignup( true );
// ... tokens, etc.

Getting this back in the response after hitting the /1/user/signup endpoint:

data : {
    currentStatus : 1,
    listOfPossibleStatus : [...],
    message : "The user is ready to sign in",
    token : "...",
    username : "[email protected]"
}

Do I need to make another API call? Can't find where and with which params.

Yes, you must make another API call to get token after sign up. If you use the Backand SDK by default it makes the second call.

$scope.signup = function (form) {
return Backand.signup(form.firstName, form.lastName, 
               form.username, form.password, 
               form.password,
               {company: form.company})
  .then(function (response) {
    $scope.getUserDetails();
    return response;
});

};

If you lool at the SDK code, this is what happens there:

self.signup = function (firstName, lastName, email, password, confirmPassword, parameters) {
    return http({
        method: 'POST',
        url: config.apiUrl + urls.signup,
        headers: {
            'SignUpToken': config.signUpToken
        },
        data: {
            firstName: firstName,
            lastName: lastName,
            email: email,
            password: password,
            confirmPassword: confirmPassword,
            parameters: parameters
        }
    }).then(function (response) {
        $rootScope.$broadcast(EVENTS.SIGNUP);

        if (config.runSigninAfterSignup
            && response.data.currentStatus === 1) {
            return self.signin(email, password);
        }

        return response;
    })
};
