invalid login details

Error message

invalid login details

What it means

Match arm in the auth-module change_password: the PATCH /account/password response was HTTP 403 FORBIDDEN, meaning the supplied credentials are not authorized for this operation on this account — typically a wrong login identity/key pair rather than a wrong current password (that maps to 401).
