How to authenticate with an API key using HttpURLConnection












0















I'm having a hard time using the Java HttpURLConnection. Ive tried using HttpClient but that also failed.



All I want to do is this:



curl -H "Authorization: Bearer 1111111111" https://company.aha.io/api/v1/features/APP-1



1111111111 is the API key.



This is my code so far.



URL url = new URL("https://company.aha.io/api/v1/features/APP-1");
connection = (HttpsURLConnection) url.openConnection();

//add request header for authentication
connection.setRequestProperty("Authorization", "Bearer " + token);
connection.connect();

System.out.println(connection.getResponseCode());


I keep getting a 404 code.
Thank you for the help.

  • 404 means the resource you're requesting does not exist. Does curl return the same error?

  • When I type the cURL command I get an {"error":"Record not found."}

  • Try adding -v to the curl command so you can see the headers. It most probably has a 404 status which means the URL is probably incorrect

  • When I use the flag -v I get a connection. Im also showing this code HTTP/2 401 This is the API I'm using https://www.aha.io/api
