LinkedIn API “Empty oauth2 access token” error

问题:

Sorry if this is question is not suitable for stackoverflow.

I've got access token from Linkedin API. I am trying to use it however I am not sure how to include my access_token. I cannot find any example on documentation.

base_url = f'https://api.linkedin.com/v2/people?access_token={linkedin_key}&format=json'
requests.get(base_url).json()

This outputs

    {'serviceErrorCode': 65604,
 'message': 'Empty oauth2 access token',
 'status': 401}

does anyone know what's wrong? Thank you.

回答1:

The access token param you need to pass is oauth2_access_token not access_token.

For example:

https://api.linkedin.com/v2/me?oauth2_access_token={linkedin_key}

I can't find it in the docs and it's been a while, but that's how I use it in my app.

回答2:

I think they want you to pass it in the headers based on my reading of their docs

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/linkedin/shared/authentication/authorization-code-flow?context=linkedin/context#step-4-make-authenticated-requests

requests.get(base_url,headers={"Authorization":"Bearer {access_token}"}).json()
