To use the ebay kleinanzeigen api (e.g. with ebk-client) an application username and an application password is required. However there are only two options to get this:
- send a mail to api@ebay-kleinanzeigen.de and never get a response or
- find the working credentials yourself in applications which must store the credentials
This blog post describes the second approach, however you will have to to the steps yourself and maybe even learn something as the "answer" is not stored here. If you are unwilling to follow the steps, you are probably not worthy to use the ebay kleinanzeigen api.
Preparation
To get started you will need to install the following tools:
Getting the application
You will have to get the ebay kleinanzeigen apk from somewhere, i chose to duckduckgo "ebay kleinanzeigen apk"
Download the app and put it in the current working directory.
Unpacking the apk layers
I use apktool and dex2jar to unpack the apk
apktool d -r -s eBay_Kleinanzeigen.apk
cd eBay_Kleinanzeigen
d2j-dex2jar ./classes.dex --force
Finding the credentials
Once unpacked we simply have to find the credentials somewhere in the code.
At first we open ./classes-dex2jar.jar with the java disassembler:
jd-gui ./classes-dex2jar.jar
and now we can use the search to find the loot:
