Get user name

[Sample Fox]

How do I get the user name after finishing the OAuth2 authentication?

Hi,

You should use the /me endpoint: https://freesound.org/docs/api/resources_apiv2.html#me-resource

Cheers,

Hey Frederic! I'm trying to use the /me resource. Unfortunately I get a 401 error. I have the authorization token, and am setting it in the request header as "Authorization: Bearer <token>". Can you post a curl command which works? I've tried everything. I don't know if you know Swift, but this is what my code looks like

func getUserInfo(completion: @escaping (Bool) -> Void) {

        let params = UserParams()

        let request = HttpRequest(baseUrl: config.meURL,

                                  method: .get,

                                  params: params,

                                  headers: [//"Accept": "application/json",

                                            "Authorization": "Bearer \(authToken)"])

        _ = httpClient.performJSONRequest(request: request) { (result: Result<UserModel, HTTPClient.RequestError>) in

            switch result {

            case .success(let success):

                print(success.username)

            case .failure(let failure):

                print("error \(failure)")

            }

        }

    }

This is a curl command I tried. It shows nothing in response. I'm using a valid token.

curl -H "Authorization: Bearer <token>" "https://freesound.org/apiv2/me"
