# Login with PenguinID

`POST /PenguinStats/api/v2/users`

## Response `200`

User ID. In the deprecated backend this is, for some reason, been implemented to return a JSON in the response body but with a `Content-Type: text/plain` in the response header instead of the correct `Content-Type: application/json`. So the v2 API has replicated this behavior to ensure compatibility.

## Other responses

- `500` — An unexpected error occurred
