Get 404 error while trying to send a request to https://my-tenant.us.qlikcloud.com/api/v1/users/me

jcampbel1 — Fri, 21 Mar 2025 11:31:26 GMT

I am getting an error when I call the endpoint https://my-tenant.us.qlikcloud.com/api/v1/users/me in my code ( I use my company tenant instead of https://my-tenant.us.qlikcloud.com in my code.)

try { const userInfoUrl = 'https://my-tenant.us.qlikcloud.com/api/v1/users/me'; const response = await fetch(userInfoUrl, { method: 'GET', headers: { 'Authorization': `Bearer ${token}`, },

I have confirmed that I pass in a valid token (I get token when logging in).

When I go to the endpoint https://my-tenant.us.qlikcloud.com/api/v1/users/me in google, it works. So why doesn't it work in my code?

Thanks

What are you trying to achieve?
/api/v1/users/me endpoint will trigger e redirect, that's why it works in browser and not from your code.

I am not a JavaScript guy so hopefully the code is usable as a base, but I can't explain a 404. Considerations:

- /api/v1/users/me will return a 301 and redirect you to /api/v1/users/{user_id}.

- You're not specifying where the bearer token is coming from. In my code I am using an API key from Qlik Cloud. Removal of the "Developer" role will result in a 401 (pre-auth unauthorized), which makes sense. Still not 404. Are you using a JWT IDP to generate the bearer token?

Example code which works on my tenant:

var https = require('https');

var options = {
   hostname: '<my_tenant>',
   port: 443,
   path: '/api/v1/users/me',
   method: 'GET',
   headers: {
      'Authorization' : ' Bearer <my_api_key>'
   }
};

https.get(options, function(response) {
   console.log("Got response: " + response.statusCode);
   response.on("data", function(chunk) {
      console.log("BODY: " + chunk);  
   });
   }).on('error', function(e) {
      console.log("Got error: " + e.message);
});

i am creating a POC type of project. I need to login via oauth (which works as I am returned back a token and redirected) once on the page '/homepage' I want to call that endpoint that however when the endpoint is being called using the code shown above with a valid token. I am getting the 404 error

hello, thanks for the reply. I am using the access token returned to me after the user is authenticated via Oauth. in my code I use /api/v1/users/me endpoint however when I look in the console logs of the error it shows me /api/v1/users/{user_id} - this means it actually knows what id is associated with the token however I am still getting that 404 error.

I dont use a API whatsoever because what is supposed to happen in the flow of is:

1. user logs in via oauth
2. user now has access token
3. user directed to homepage
4.using the endpoint /api/v1/users/me I want to get information such as email, firstname etc so I can display.

Later on I want to be able to get a list of apps they have access to etc
