const headers = {  
‘Client-ID’: ‘xxx’,  
‘Authorization’: ‘Bearer xxx’

```
  };
  const result = await window.fetch(url, {

    .catch((err) => err.message);

As the error would indicate, your OAuth token is invalid, so I’d suggest reading through the [Authentication Docs](https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/authentication) and ensure you’re properly completing one of the OAuth flows.

If you think you’ve gone through the Authentication process correctly you should be able to use the Validate Token endpoint [https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/authentication/validate-tokens](https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/authentication/validate-tokens) which will tell if if the token is valid or not.
