Is it possible to programatically log in a user?

Fun idea. Yes

```var url = SC.ENVIRONMENT.baseUrl.replace('{{file}}','services/Account.Login.Service.ss');
var data = {   
     email: '<mailto:example@example.com|example@example.com>', // put the login email here
     password: 'password', // put the password here
     redirect: 'true'
};
jQuery.ajax({
    url: url,
    data: JSON.stringify(data),
    type: 'post'
})
.done(function () {
    window.location.reload()
})```

Wow, that's succinct and useful. Thank you, <@U8X7E86M6>. :pray::skin-tone-2:

I think you should still use the Account modules to do this sort of thing

And obviously not reference `SC` in your code

I attempted to use something similar to this to logout and then redirect user.
Unfortunately it didn't logout the user, but it did redirect them. Can you see something I missed in this?
```jQuery.ajax({
    url: Utils.getAbsoluteUrl(environmentComponent.getSiteSetting("touchpoints.logout"))
}).always(() => {
    window.location = suitelet_url;
});```
I can see that it calls the correct url but the return code is 303.

When I logout using the menu I can see that 4 url's are hit.

Ah I missed that it redirected to *logOut.ssp?logoff=T* and then fails there with the following error.

```Javascript is disabled on your browser.
To view this site, you must enable JavaScript or upgrade to a JavaScript-capable browser.```

I mean, something like this is the simplest way to log out:
```window.location = SC.ENVIRONMENT.siteSettings.touchpoints.logout```
If you’re trying to do it with SuiteScript, I’ve already documented (what I think) is the best way: <https://docs.oracle.com/en/cloud/saas/netsuite/ns-online-help/section_164383450200.html#Redirect-Users-with-SuiteScript>
