How to Properly Set the curl Authorization Header for API Requests?

16 Replies, 1422 Views

Yo, I had the same issue with the curl authorization header. Turns out, my token had a newline character at the end, which messed things up.

For Basic Auth, `curl -u` is the way to go, but if you wanna set it manually, you’ll need to base64 encode the credentials.

Also, try using `curl -v` to debug—it’ll show you exactly what’s being sent and received.
