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. [unauthorize]

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 [image] Requiring OAuth for Helix Twitch API Endpoints Announcements In an effort to standardize authentication and provide…

So how would I do that? There are no code examples in the post you linked. (Unless im blind or something.)

[image] Requiring OAuth for Helix Twitch API Endpoints My application does not currently make use of an OAuth token to access the Twitch API. What should I do? We recommend passing an app access token within your request or a user token for a request made on behalf of a Twitch user. In addition …

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)

So, like this? “ https://id.twitch.tv/oauth2/token?client_id=id&client_secret=id&grant_type=client_id=id&client_secret=id ”

First you need to decide if App Access is the right type for you
