Seems to be an issue with improperly formatted json data. Do you have any insight into how I can fix this? Thanks

Can you try this pynder build charliewolf/pynder#211 and let me know if it works?

git clone git@github.com:cjekel/pynder.git
cd pynder
git checkout v2auth_newhead
pip install . --force-reinstall --no-deps

[robpot891]

I followed your instructions and installed your updated pynder and got the same error message:

Is the Facebook auth token supposed to be 200+ characters long? Mine is and maybe I've gotten the facebook auth and facebook ID mixed up?

[cjekel]

I don't think my version of pynder installed in your cv environment, because the line that is throwing the error has been changed in the new code. I also changed how the error is shown when authenticating.

Try running

python -m pip install . --force-reinstall --no-deps

from the pynder folder within your cv environment. That will make sure the right pip is used.

Yes the facebook token is > 200 characters. The facebook ID isn't needed any more.

[robpot891]

Thanks for helping me out. This is the latest error message after making sure I installed the new pynder.

My internet is working fine and I'm able to login to Tinder and Facebook through browser.

Strange, this is the same unauthorized access error getting thrown in travis ci build... but this fork of pynder is working for me.

Someone mentioned fbessez/Tinder#69 that the new auth didn't work, and the old auth gave an okay. Also someone in charliewolf/pynder#208 was having issues with the new auth. So let me tag these issues to see if someone else can figure out what is going on...

Let's try the following ant see what happens.

Can you run this in a python/ipython console and see what happens?

Old Auth

import requests

facebook_token = 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'

USER_AGENT = "Tinder/7.5.3 (iPhone; iOS 10.3.2; Scale/2.00)"

HEADERS = {
    'app_version': '6.9.4',
    'platform': 'ios',
    "content-type": "application/json",
    "User-agent": USER_AGENT,
    "Accept": "application/json"
}

old_url = 'https://api.gotinder.com/auth'

old_data = {"facebook_token": facebook_token}

r_old = requests.post(old_url, headers=HEADERS, json=old_data)

print(r_old.status_code)
print(r_old.json())
                        

New auth

import requests

facebook_token = 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'

USER_AGENT = "Tinder/7.5.3 (iPhone; iOS 10.3.2; Scale/2.00)"

HEADERS = {
    'app_version': '6.9.4',
    'platform': 'ios',
    "content-type": "application/json",
    "User-agent": USER_AGENT,
    "Accept": "application/json"
}

new_url = 'https://api.gotinder.com/v2/auth/login/facebook'

new_data = {"token": facebook_token}

r_new = requests.post(new_url, headers=HEADERS, json=new_data)

print(r_new.status_code)
print(r_new.json())

---

In my case

Old auth outputs:

200

--> 400         return self.scan_once(s, idx=_w(s, idx).end())

JSONDecodeError: Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0)

but New Auth outputs:

200
{'meta': {'status': 200}, 'data': {'_id': 'xxxxx', 'api_token': 'xxxxxxx', 'refresh_token': 'xxxxxxx', 'is_new_user': False}}

where 'api_token' is my X-Auth-Token

---

Please don't share any private data. I marked my data with xxxx

Notice how both authentications throw the 200 api okay code, but only one is throwing my api token in json. I don't know what's going on, but this is what I used to troubleshoot before sending my pr.

This is the first one.

The second one worked!

Update

I got it working now. The only thing I did differently was clone the repo and install it manually with setup.py.

Awesome program too. Works perfectly. Cheers.

[cjekel]

I'm glad you got it working. A few days ago I changed how the config.txt file was being read 0b027e1 which was likely causing the 401.
