Shopify – Custom PHP app gives Missing Authorization key error

I am trying to build a custom Shopify app in my Shopify admin.

I am using Shopify’s official PHP library.

I have successfully initialized the library.

Now when I try to connect to the API I am getting the following error:

Fatal error: Uncaught ShopifyExceptionMissingArgumentException: Missing Authorization key in headers array in /www/doc/www.sozialstar.de/www/script/vendor/shopify/shopify-api/src/Auth/OAuth.php:226 Stack trace: #0 /www/doc/www.sozialstar.de/www/script/vendor/shopify/shopify-api/src/Utils.php(160): ShopifyAuthOAuth::getCurrentSessionId(Array, Array, true) #1 /www/doc/www.sozialstar.de/www/script/shopifytest.php(29): ShopifyUtils::loadCurrentSession(Array, Array, true) #2 {main} thrown in /www/doc/www.sozialstar.de/www/script/vendor/shopify/shopify-api/src/Auth/OAuth.php on line 226

Here is my PHP code:

$requestHeaders = array('api_version'=>'2022-10', 'X-Shopify-Access-Token'=>'mytoken');
$requestCookies = array();
$isOnline = true;

$this->test_session = Utils::loadCurrentSession(
    $requestHeaders,
    $requestCookies,
    $isOnline
);

I am doing this based on Shopify API docs.

Why is it not working?

    It seems like the Shopify API for PHP expects you to set the Authorization header field/ doesn’t support X-Shopify-Access-Token. Try this instead:

    $requestHeaders = array(
                       'api_version'=>'2022-10', 
                       'Authorization'=>'Bearer YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN'
                      );

    I am also getting the same issue. The problem is in below file.

    vendor/firebase/php-jwt/src/JWT.php

    See public static function decode(). The first parameter for this function is $jwt and it is pure access token which we passing in header. Ex : XXX_XXXXXXXXXX

    Then see below code in above function.

    $tks = explode('.', $jwt);
    if (count($tks) !== 3) {
        throw new UnexpectedValueException('Wrong number of segments');
    }

    The issue is it is exploding the – sign. But the $jwt contain value like XXX_XXXXXX. Actually it is looking for a value lile XXXXXX.XXXXXX.XXXXXX

    Seems we have to encode the access token in header or should set something to encode the header. Any idea guys?

    Thank You!
