as a beginner, I have some problems in using Ajax (with Discogs API) .. to get a discogs request token, discogs is saying
Include the following headers with your request:
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Authorization:
OAuth oauth_consumer_key="your_consumer_key",
oauth_nonce="random_string_or_timestamp",
oauth_signature="your_consumer_secret&",
oauth_signature_method="PLAINTEXT",
oauth_timestamp="current_timestamp",
oauth_callback="your_callback"
User-Agent: some_user_agent
https://www.discogs.com/developers#page:authentication,header:authentication-discogs-auth-flow
but, how to write this header? below is my trying code, but I know this is not proper.
$.ajax({
type: "GET",
url: "https://api.discogs.com/oauth/request_token",
dataType: 'jsonp',
headers: {
ContentType: "application/x-www-form-urlencoded",
Authorization: OAuth oauth_consumer_key="your_consumer_key",
oauth_nonce="random_string_or_timestamp",
oauth_signature="your_consumer_secret&",
oauth_signature_method="PLAINTEXT",
oauth_timestamp="current_timestamp",
oauth_callback="your_callback",
UserAgent: some_user_agent,
}
success: function (data) {
console.log(data);
document.getElementById("content").innerHTML += "<br>" + `${data}`;
},
error: function (error) {
console.log(error);
}
});
You said:
It isn't possible to specify headers for JSONP requests.
The API can't be using JSONP. Set the dataType to the format they are using.
The documentation says:
Putting those in your client-side code will disclose them to all your visitors.
The request to that end point should be made from server-side code.
