Hello. I'm having troubles with downloading a sound using my API token with axious.
For searching I use `https://freesound.org/apiv2/search/text/?query=${query}&token=${process.env.FREESOUND_API_TOKEN}` and it's working perfectly

When I try to download same way, I get 401 error. I'm using axios and nodejs, so I have been trying to put my API token in "Authorization" field but it always ends the same 401 error way.

Please, tell me, what is the problem here?

Hi,

To download you need to authenticate via Oauth2. Please check API documentation for more details on that authentication method.

Cheers,
