Login User from API

Hello,

I have a question. Sorry for this question, it might be a very stupid one, but can I login user thought API?

I have a WordPress landing page from which I need to send login credentials via POST request to Laravel site and if everything is fine redirect to already logged dashboard (for example).

What is the best way to do it? Should I just use Auth::attempt($credentials)? Can someone share best practices for doing this?
