TomorrowIdeas \ Plaid \ PlaidRequestException (400) Bad Request

[gigalabs18]

I am using this package(0.14.0) wrapper in php framework (laravel) as below.

use TomorrowIdeas\Plaid\Plaid;

$plaid = new Plaid(
            $clientId,
            $secretKey,
            'development'
        );

        $item = $plaid->createLinkToken('name of user', 'es', ['US'],'unique_user_id',["auth"]);

        return $this->sendSuccessResponse('role', $item, 'role stored successfully!');

it return me an error as TomorrowIdeas \ Plaid \ PlaidRequestException (400) Bad Request don't why although clientId, secret is correct.

What Plaid API version are you using? Can you add a try... catch around the the createLinkToken call and send the contents of: \dd($exception->getResponse())?

For example:

try {
    $item = $plaid->createLinkToken('name of user', 'es', ['US'],'unique_user_id',[]);
} catch ( PlaidRequestException $exception) {
   \dd($exception->getResponse());
}

Sounds like you are on PHP 7.2 and are locked into the 0.14 release. Can you send the contents of:

try {
    $item = $plaid->createLinkToken('name of user', 'es', ['US'],'unique_user_id',[]);
} catch ( PlaidRequestException $exception) {
   \dd($exception->getResponse());
}

To know exactly what the issue is, I need to see the error being returned by Plaid.

The issue is you are referencing the current master documentation which is drastically different than the version you are on (version 0.14). Your constructor parameters are incorrect. For version 0.14, you need to either include your public key or set it to null in the constructor. For example:

$plaid = new Plaid(
    $client_id,
    $client_secret,
    null,
    "development"
);

Or you can upgrade your PHP version to at least 7.3 and update the SDK to the 1.x version.
