-A super post – thanks a lot. In case this helps anyone else, the ‘Bearer’ in ‘Bearer ACCESS TOKEN’ must be left in. So, if your access token is for example ’00D28000000aeXO!ARwAQKjEs40X.SYAIh4qtfhZTituS5eKmrYNjHXPMLXK1ACgE0QCumefqDGiD0t4HCW21Fe1L8vkZFHYy_pE0Oa5R0253rmV’ then you would pass ‘Bearer 00D28000000aeXO!ARwAQKjEs40X.SYAIh4qtfhZTituS5eKmrYNjHXPMLXK1ACgE0QCumefqDGiD0t4HCW21Fe1L8vkZFHYy_pE0Oa5R0253rmV’ and not just the access token.
