How Do I Properly Set the Authorization Header in a cURL Request?

10 Replies, 1144 Views

Wow, thanks everyone for the super helpful replies! I tried the `-v` flag and saw that my token was actually expired—facepalm moment. I regenerated it and the curl authorization header worked like a charm.

For Basic Auth, I ended up using the `-u` flag since it was quicker, but I’ll definitely try the header method next time. Also, Postman is a game-changer—thanks for the tip!

One last question: if I’m dealing with OAuth2, is there a specific way to handle the curl authorization header for that, or is it similar to Bearer tokens?

Cheers!
