QRZ login not accepted

my login and password for QRZ.com are not accepted - wild guess: is there a bug handling funky passwords? I’m using password managers and generated passwords…

Are you using your callsign and NOT email address? The api will NOT let you use your email address.

Yes, I was using my callsign for the login - but mentioning the XML API was the right hint.
The QRZ website login allows special characters but the XML API uses the password in plain text in the URL query - which will break with special characters…
changing my password fixed the issue.
