Error 401: Authorization header required Swift

[Zhanliang]

Hi Fitbit community,

So the error I am getting is:HTTP Status 401: Unauthorized, Response: {"errors":[{"errorType":"invalid_request","message":"Authorization header required. 

The code I have to authorize Fitbit is :

func authorizeFitbit(completion: (result: Bool) -> Void ){       
 oauthswift.accessTokenBasicAuthentification = true
 let state: String = generateStateWithLength(20) as String       
 oauthswift.authorizeWithCallbackURL( NSURL(string: "xxxxxxxxx")!, scope: "xxxxxxxxxxxxx", state: state, success: {            
 credential, response, parameters in
            self.getUserProfile(){
                (result: Bool) in                
                completion(result:  result)
            }

            }, failure: { error in
                print(error.localizedDescription)                
                completion(result:  false)
        })
        }

I am able to grab profile information but when I am trying to grab more information from fitbit by clicking on an IBAction button, I am required to use this authorize function again to grab the number of steps.

Hi @Zhanliang,

Just as a heads up, I've moved your post from the iOS forum to the API forum to help keep the Community organized.

The iOS forum is for discussing and seeking help for the iOS Fitbit App.

Welcome to the Community!

Repeatedly "bumping" a topic doesn't help anyone. Please don't do this.

This is a forum for getting help with the Fitbit Web API, not for help with the Swift programming language. I encourage you to do a Google search for how to make a HTTP request with an Authorization header using Swift.
