Making Requests

Authenticated requests carry your access token in the Authorization header. A quick way to confirm a token works is the account-info endpoint, which returns the authenticated account.

Always send the Accept header. Add Accept: application/json to every request. Without it, error responses can fall back to an HTML page instead of a JSON body, which is much harder to parse.

GET/api/v1/account/info/self Reference

cURL

curl https://loops.video/api/v1/account/info/self \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN"

JavaScript

const res = await fetch(
  'https://loops.video/api/v1/account/info/self',
  { headers: { Authorization: 'Bearer ' + accessToken } }
)
const account = await res.json()

Response codes

The API uses standard HTTP status codes. Errors return a JSON body with an error field describing what went wrong.

Status	Meaning
200	Success.
401	Missing or invalid access token.
403	Authenticated, but not allowed to perform this action.
404	The requested resource does not exist.
422	Validation failed — check the error body for details.
429	Rate limit exceeded.
