I have run the following code which sends a REST request to the mashape imgur API
import javax.ws.rs.client.ClientBuilder;
import javax.ws.rs.core.Response;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JsonNode;
import com.jivecake.api.serializer.JsonTools;
public class ImgurTest {
@org.junit.Test
public void gallery() {
String url = String.format("https://imgur-apiv3.p.mashape.com/3/account/me");
Response response = ClientBuilder.newClient()
.target(url)
.request()
.header("X-Mashape-Key", "key_hidden")
.header("Authorization", "Client-ID client_id_hidden")
.header("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded")
.header("Accept", "application/json")
.buildGet()
.invoke();
String content = response.readEntity(String.class);
System.out.println(content);
}
}
and I received the following response for this REST request
{
"data" : {
"error" : "Unable to find account username, me",
"request" : "/3/account/me/images",
"method" : "GET"
},
"success" : false,
"status" : 404
}
The API documentation purports that “me” can be used for the currently authenticated account here: https://api.imgur.com/endpoints/account#current
Why does the above REST request not work?
Note that the mashape key and client ID are valid but are obscured but for the purposes of submitting this ticket.
