Read the user info

Extensions
1

Hi Community

I am trying to get the “display_name” of the viewer that interacts with my extension

I read the documentation and found that I do that with the Twitch API https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/reference#get-users

But when making my requests it throws me the following error:
{
“error”: “Unauthorized”,
“status”: 401,
“message”: “Invalid OAuth token”
}

I understand that the following parameters are sent:

-id of the user that I want to read their information.

2 headers:

-The authorization with the token in Bearer format (generated with JWT)
-The Client-Id

All this I am sending and it does not respond to me, does anyone know what I can be doing wrong?

I leave my data here:
Client-ID: icty3i5g0xkb0wpr8vkwr7inwy96ae
Authorization: Bearer eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9…
UserID: 554781967

You tried to use the JWT as a Bearer

Which you can’t do as it’s not an oAuth token

See this example

For advice on an example flow to do what you describe

Thank you very much BarryCarlyon

I already changed the type of token and how it is generated and everything works perfect
