import_logs.py does not work with secure auth token in Matomo 5

Maybe we just need to add a note in the documentation to use only tokens created without the "Secure token" option?

Hi @lkroll. Thanks for letting us know.
I guess the problem is, that the log importer sends the token auth within a GET request.
If you are familiar with python and have some time to work on the required changes, feel free to contribute a pull request.
I'm unable to promise if we will be able to work on this soon.
In the meantime using a token that is not configured as secure only should still work as expected.

@lkroll Thank you, that was exactly the problem I was facing and wasted hours with it. Creating a new token which is not secure solved the problem.
