I'm not sure why your token wouldn't work as a Bearer token. If you get your token, can you do something like this from the command line?
curl http://api.lifx.co/v1/lights -H"Authorization: Bearer c6805af2e4fa8cd15dc28a8c6e54cc1c371e9efafb87b10536341105f74087a3"
(in this example, that's not a real token, but it looks like one :p)
The token you create from cloud.lifx.com never expires. The only way they stop working is if you revoke them from that same page.
I look forward to reading your other articles :)
Thanks so much, I got it to work with a Bearer token!
With Basic auth, it's token:, but I didn't need the colon for Bearer auth.
token:
Thanks again, that definitely remotes some overhead!
Awesome! :)
