401 Unauthorized error while making request to API using Python. It indicates access token "invalid"

CodeSlain · August 18

I’m encountering a 401 Unauthorized error while trying to make a request to API. The error message indicates that the access token I'm using is "invalid."

Here’s what I’ve tried so far:

Verified the Access Token:
- Double-checked for any typographical errors in the token.
- Confirmed that the token is in the correct format expected by the API.
Checked Token Expiration:
- Verified that the token hasn’t expired.
- Tried generating a new token, but still encountering the same issue.
Authorization Header:
- Ensured that the token is included in the Authorization header as:
- Authorization: Bearer your_access_token_here
- Confirmed that this header is being properly included in all API requests.
Verified Token Scopes:
- Ensured that the token has the correct scopes/permissions for the resource I’m trying to access.
