403 error

[danielgolden]

Thanks a ton for creating this. I'm having issues standing it up. I've followed the steps in your readme, but I'm getting HTTP Error: 403 Forbidden every time I run my app. I've included my api key as well and I'm just not sure what the issue could be.

Hi! I’m currently away right now so I can’t fully check on your issue. Could you just provide the full JSON output of the error? Thanks

[Andrew814]

Im also getting the same error

[EXtremeExploit]

getting same error here

[Andrew814]

I wonder if the API is not working

[Andrew814]

It's really annoying though

[ickerio]

I'm now able to fix this issue, are you still getting the 403 error?

[EXtremeExploit]

yes

[danielgolden]

Yes, I am as well. I also don't remember getting any output from this error beyond what I included in the initial issue comment. Just a generic "403" error.

[ickerio]

I'm having trouble replicating this issue. Sorry about this. So is this happening every request or just some? Could you console.log the catch and post it here please. Cheers

[EXtremeExploit]

the only thing I get it's "HTTP Error: 403 Forbidden" in a catch

To be honest with you, @ickerio I'm brand new to node and the use of apis via js and this issue probably has a lot to do with that. I set up a node project, installed your package, pasted in the sample js into my app.js file:

// Bring in the Fortnite module
const { Client } = require('fortnite');
// Create an instance of the client with your API Key
const fortnite = new Client('Your-API-Key');

// Get the stats of an Xbox player by the name of Number1Swifty
fortnite.user('freshasalwayz', 'psn').then(console.log);

Then I swapped out your username, platform, and api key for mine (though I didn't include my api key above). Saved, ran node app.js and then got the 403 error logged to the console. "HTTP Error: 403 Forbidden".

That code is for the module fortnite not fortnite.js so thats probably your issue. Ask here if your using his wrapper. https://www.npmjs.com/package/fortnite 😆

I was also just about to say the only case I get a 403 error is if my api key is wrong, so theres likely something wrong with his wrapper.

[danielgolden]

Ahh, my bad. I just copied it from the other module's site to try to show you what I did but I meant copy it from yours. When I get this error is actually from your modules sample code. I just can't go find it right now because I have to work/am lazy 😓 . I'll try to go track it down and send it your way when I get a break.

Closing. If you are still experiencing this issue and find a way to consistently reproduce the error keep it open then.
