Unable To Get Twitch API OAuth For PHP

[BarryCarlyon]

@RonWhoCares

I am looking at https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/authentication/getting-tokens-oauth/#oauth-client-credentials-flow and Barry’s GIT ‘Notes’. Both are saying to use the URL https://id.twitch.tv/oauth2/token to get an access token. When I try this in my code and browser I get an error 404 page not found.

You missed the part where I pointed out the different oAuth flows

@BarryCarlyon

This is a complete example of user authentication https://github.com/BarryCarlyon/twitch_misc/tree/main/authentication/user_access_generator/php and if you need to get an “anonomous”/public token for server to server calls, which if you are transitioning from Kraken to Helix seems more likely, then you need an App Access/Client Credentials token https://github.com/BarryCarlyon/twitch_misc/tree/main/authentication/app_access_tokens/php

Where I said you likely need the last link, not the first link.

So you mixed up on what I was telling you. Apologies for the lack of clarity
