Basic example throws Error: authentication failed - client error

[hansipete]

Hello,

I'm struggling using this API for my project... at the very beginning :)

I initialised a new node project and added this package only. Now when running the basic example it returns Error: authentication failed - client error

I put in the consumer key and secret that was given to me, when I created my app in the Splitwise Dashboard.

Is this still supposed to work?

Thank you and have a great day everyone,
Hans

sorry for the slow reply @hansipete. can you provide an example of the code that produces the error (with secrets redacted)? thanks!

Hello,

I was using like:

const sw = Splitwise({
   consumerKey: SPLITWISE_CONSUMER_KEY,
   consumerSecret: SPLITWISE_CONSUMER_SECRET,
 });

sw.getCurrentUser()
  .then((data) => {
     console.log(data);
  })
  .catch((e) => {
     console.log(e);
  });

And am getting:
Error: getCurrentUser - getCurrentUser - authentication failed - unknown error
