Unauthorized - 401 - Insufficient authorization in token

[Versifiction]

{
“error”: “Unauthorized”,
“status”: 401,
“message”: “Insufficient authorization in token”
}

I get the JSON above after doing a request on https://api.twitch.tv/helix/moderation/moderators with the right headers and query below,

headers: {
  "Client-ID": process.env.CLIENT_ID,
  Authorization: "Bearer " + accessToken,
},
qs: {
  broadcaster_id: "90849777",
},

I checked that the client-id was good, the token was good and the broadcaster_id too so I don’t understand why it says there’s insufficient authorization in token because I succeeded to get the JSON object with the accessToken, expiresIn, scope, token_type properties.

That would suggest one of the following

• You used an App Access Token/Client Credentials
• You used a token that does not have moderation:read attached
• You used a token that doesn’t belong to 90849777 aka versifixion

You need a User Access Token belonging to 90849777 -> https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/authentication/getting-tokens-oauth#oauth-authorization-code-flow

To attach the moderation:read, you have to put in in the URL like this right ?

Link : https://id.twitch.tv/oauth2/authorize?client_id=5fhz51tfvoevwmrn39ity7iv99vqa9&redirect_uri=http://localhost:3000&response_type=code&scope=moderation:read%20user:read:follows&force_verify=true

[BarryCarlyon]

That looks correct yes. That requests the user:read:follows scope and the moderation:read scope

Ok, and I want to display my moderators on my website, so yes my broadcaster_id is 90849777 (username VersifiXion), but above you said 908497771 ? You added a 1 at the end ?

@Versifiction

above you said 908497771 ? You added a 1 at the end ?

I fat fingered and missed the ` and hit the 1 and didn’t notice. My mistake (post edited)

I figured what was the issue… I was connected with another Twitch account… Thank you for the time you spent on this topic

But can you tell me that if another user comes into my website, he will still get my moderators ?
