I have a self-hosted Discourse site which uses Patreon for authentication. It has been working for one month, but now I am getting the following error when new users try to login: ``` (patreon) Authentication failure! invalid_credentials: OAuth2::Error, 405 Method Not Allowed ``` ![DiscourseLogin_1](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/3X/f/7/f72ba7d76402e66cce0b85874e976e93f9c4ebb8.jpeg) It is exactly 30 days since I set up the integration between Patreon and Discourse. My _feeling_ is that the problem has something to do with an expired token. I checked the API keys and they were fine. (It had been working up until yesterday.) I tried creating a new Client on Patreon, and updated the API keys within Discourse, but this doesn’t seem to have helped. I would really appreciate any help. ---

It is an issue from Patreon side and they resolved it now. > **[Patreon-Connect Plugin Causing 405 Error](https://www.patreondevelopers.com/t/patreon-connect-plugin-causing-405-error/2290/5)** > > This seems to have been due to a hiccup at the API at Patreon, and it seems to have been resolved. I have been able to test and confirm that it works. ---
