Correct way to set Bearer token with CURL
Replace:
$authorization = "Bearer 080042cad6356ad5dc0a720c18b53b8e53d4c274"
with:
$authorization = "Authorization: Bearer 080042cad6356ad5dc0a720c18b53b8e53d4c274";
to make it a valid and working Authorization header.
As at PHP 7.3:
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPAUTH, CURLAUTH_BEARER);
curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_XOAUTH2_BEARER,$bearerToken);
This is a cURL function that can send or retrieve data. It should work with any PHP app that supports OAuth:
function jwt_request($token, $post) {
header('Content-Type: application/json'); // Specify the type of data
$ch = curl_init('https://APPURL.com/api/json.php'); // Initialise cURL
$post = json_encode($post); // Encode the data array into a JSON string
$authorization = "Authorization: Bearer ".$token; // Prepare the authorisation token
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array('Content-Type: application/json' , $authorization )); // Inject the token into the header
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1); // Specify the request method as POST
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $post); // Set the posted fields
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1); // This will follow any redirects
$result = curl_exec($ch); // Execute the cURL statement
curl_close($ch); // Close the cURL connection
return json_decode($result); // Return the received data
}
Use it within one-way or two-way requests:
$token = "080042cad6356ad5dc0a720c18b53b8e53d4c274"; // Get your token from a cookie or database
$post = array('some_trigger'=>'...','some_values'=>'...'); // Array of data with a trigger
$request = jwt_request($token,$post); // Send or retrieve data
This should works
$token = "YOUR_BEARER_AUTH_TOKEN";
//setup the request, you can also use CURLOPT_URL
$ch = curl_init('API_URL');
// Returns the data/output as a string instead of raw data
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
//Set your auth headers
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array(
'Content-Type: application/json',
'Authorization: Bearer ' . $token
));
// get stringified data/output. See CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER
$data = curl_exec($ch);
// get info about the request
$info = curl_getinfo($ch);
// close curl resource to free up system resources
curl_close($ch);
