Incorrect follow/user in docs?

As per the helix change, all helix endpoints require an oAuth token.

You need to add a header of

Authorization: Bearer TOKNEHERE

There is a ticket in for the Documentation being fixed (it was fixed then it was broken)

ClientID’s are public no need to hide that.

My implict auth example here

          // Substitute as needed
          var client_id = 'hozgh446gdilj5knsrsxxz8tahr3koz';
          var redirect = 'https://barrycarlyon.github.io/twitch_misc/authentication/implicit_auth/';
          
          document.getElementById('authorize_public').setAttribute('href', `https://id.twitch.tv/oauth2/authorize?client_id=${client_id}&redirect_uri=${encodeURIComponent(redirect)}&response_type=token`);
          document.getElementById('authorize_email').setAttribute('href', `https://id.twitch.tv/oauth2/authorize?client_id=${client_id}&redirect_uri=${encodeURIComponent(redirect)}&response_type=token&scope=user:read:email`);
          document.getElementById('access_token').textContent = '';
          
          if (document.location.hash && document.location.hash != '') {
              var parsedHash = new URLSearchParams(window.location.hash.slice(1));
              if (parsedHash.get('access_token')) {
                  var access_token = parsedHash.get('access_token');
                  document.getElementById('access_token').textContent = `Your Access Token extracted from the #url is ${access_token}`;
          
                  document.getElementById('user_data').textContent = 'Loading';
          
                  // call API
                  fetch(
                      'https://api.twitch.tv/helix/users',
                      {
                          "headers": {

Provides an example of specifying the header.
