# Logging Into An Account

This tutorial will talk you through logging into an account.

{% hint style="danger" %}
Before you start: Do NOT attempt to store the account details of other users unless you are very experienced in storing account details securely.

Simply storing a user's password in a file or database is inadequate security and is very irresponsible. It is a breach of the Terms Of Use to do this.

You may store your own password if you are prepared to take the risk.
{% endhint %}

First we need to require Cubed-API. To do this add the following code at the top of your JavaScript file:

```javascript
// Dependencies
const CubedCraft = require('cubed-api');
```

Now you can login to the account with the following code:

```javascript
// Dependencies
const CubedCraft = require('cubed-api');

// Account Details
const username = 'ACCOUNT_USERNAME';
const password = 'ACCOUNT_PASSWORD';

// Defining The Session ID Variable
var sessionID;

// Logging Into The Account
CubedCraft.login(username, password).then(ses => sessionID = ses);
```

The variable "sessionID" will now be set to a session ID for your account. This Session ID can now be used to perform actions.

{% hint style="info" %}
Make sure you have read the guide on Session ID's so you understand what you are doing with a session ID: <https://pondwadermc.gitbook.io/cubed-api/tutorials-and-guides/sessions>
