Welcome Gracie. Nice to connect with you!👋🏾

[Waldo]

HI, how are you doing today?

[Princeome]

I'm doing fine. How about you. Hope you're having a nice time wherever you are.

[Phil Suggars]

Nice to meet you - what are you working on at the moment?

[Oscar Ortiz]

I love using this platform a lot! I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask questions but can anyone point me towards the right direction on learning how to make fetch requests to DEV.to API?

I am trying to render out my published articles onto my personal site but can't figure out how to work with the API KEY with my reactjs app.

[Deco]

You can check the api docs here: developers.forem.com/api

[Oscar Ortiz]

I am currently working on this still. Here is my code for example.

  axios.get("https://dev.to/api/articles/me/published", {
            headers: {
                'api-key': process.env.REACT_APP_DEV_API_KEY,
            },
        }).then(res => console.log(res)).catch(err => console.log(err));

but I keep getting an error message saying I am not authorized.

[Deco]

Your request seems fine.

I've tried it right now and got the same problem.

Maybe a problem with the api endpoint.

In a strange way making the request through curl worked for me.

[Deco]

Found the problem.

It's CORS.

Actually CORS is disabled for public API requests but not for restricted endpoints.

Take a look in some workarounds:

I appreciate this! Thank you for being such great help

About time i finally joined this community.
I'm currently in 2nd year of my computer science degree. I'm interested in web development and some of the cards up my sleves are: reactJS, nodeJS and mongoDB.
I'm currently trying to expand out of the MERN stack and trying to learn postgresql with prisma, graphql and typescript. (i can not seem to leave react, it's just too good🌝)
i'm really excited to be a part of this community and would love to talk to anyone who shares my interests.
