Patreon Plugin Authentication Failure Error

Support

Hi, we have a patreon plugin that is connected to our discourse, since the beginning when the authentication failure happens we simply refreshed the keys and it would start working again.

However, now the even after refreshing the keys the plugin doesn’t work. It keeps giving these Authentication Failures even though our keys and tokens are correct.

We followed this guide setting up the API v1 as this guide suggested (v2 also runs into the same issues).

This seems to have happened in the latest patreon plugin update. Is anyone else having this issue and/or able to assist with this?

(patreon) Authentication failure! invalid_credentials: OAuth2::Error, : {"errors":[{"code":null,"code_name":"OAuthClientViewForbidden","detail":"You do not have permission to view OAuth Client

(patreon) Authentication failure! csrf_detected: OmniAuth::Strategies::OAuth2::CallbackError, csrf_detected | CSRF detected

So it seems the resolve here is to delete the api key all together and generate a brand new one. No idea why, but that seemed to do the trick.
