API auth error when trying to publish image

Developers

Hey all,
I’m trying to send an image to my tidbt through the the api but am getting the follow response about a signing method.

{'code': 16, 'message': 'invalid auth token: signing method (alg) is unavailable.', 'details': []}

I believe I’m following the instructions in the thread linked below correctly, but am failing to understand what I’m doing wrong. See below for my full code, as well as a link to the repo.

Thanks much in advance for any advice!

def send_to_tidbyt(img, auth_key, device_id, background=False):
    """Updates Tidbyt screen

    See https://github.com/dansteingart/tidbytplotlib/blob/main/tidbytplotlib.py#L95-L110
    for reference implementation

    """
    headers = {"Content-Type": "application/json", "Authorization": f"Bearer {auth_key}"}

    buffered = BytesIO()
    img.save(buffered, format="JPEG")
    img_bytes = base64.b64encode(buffered.getvalue())

    url = f"https://api.tidbyt.com/v0/devices/{device_id}/push"

    dd = {}
    dd["image"] = img_bytes.decode()
    dd["background"] = background

    payload = json.dumps(dd)
    response = requests.request("POST", url, data=payload, headers=headers)
    
    print(response.json())
    return response

Copying and pasting the key again from the app fixed the issue. I must have messed something up!

Got the image update working. Folks can reference the code here. Hope it helps!
