Heya, so im trying to make a system where if the user is live a message will pop up.
(This is on Roblox btw) I have no idea what im doing wrong but its sending back 401 - unauthorized.
There is no “client-secret” header.
You need to use your clientID and clientSecret to generate an App Access token and send an Authorization header
So how would I do that? There are no code examples in the post you linked. (Unless im blind or something.)
First you need to decide if App Access is the right type for you
Otherwise it’s covered here
Where can I find “client_credentials”?
What do you mean?
client_credentials is the value for grant_type in this type of oAuth loop
What do I put for “client_Credentials” is what im asking.
POST https://id.twitch.tv/oauth2/token
?client_id=<your client ID>
&client_secret=<your client secret>
&grant_type=client_credentials
The value is client_credentials, that is what you put there
So I put my client_id and client_secret again? (Im new to this so idk)
That is correct
So, like this? “https://id.twitch.tv/oauth2/token?client_id=id&client_secret=id&grant_type=client_id=id&client_secret=id”
No
POST https://id.twitch.tv/oauth2/token
?client_id=<your client ID>
&client_secret=<your client secret>
&grant_type=client_credentials
Like that
I am so confused right now.
POST https://id.twitch.tv/oauth2/token
?client_id=id
&client_secret=id
&grant_type=client_id&client_secret
Like that?
No
Grant_type needs to be the words client_credentials
https://id.twitch.tv/oauth2/token
?client_id=asdfasdfasdfasdffdsa
&client_secret=asdfadsfasdfadsffsd
&grant_type=client_credentials
where asdf is gibberish
OH, ok, that makes alot more sense.
Now I am getting error 400.
(Keep in mind this is roblox!)
When I do “GET” instead of “POST” it gives me a 404 error.
For this request it needs to be form data, or query string, not headers
So how would I do that? Would it be like “https://id.twitch.tv/oauth2/token?client_id=id&client_secret=id&grant_type=client_credentials”?
that would be valid yes
