hi,  
I think I have discovered a “newly introduced” bug.

I am accessing an endpoint “as an admin with a token”. However the private fields are not included in the response as they should be per the documentation.

When making the fields non-private ; they are included.

What does your API call look like?

Where are you providing the authentication / admin token? That’s the relevant part 🙂

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

I guess this is what you mean 🙂

Hmmm, looks good to me 🤷‍♂️ Other things might be to check you’re calling the test version, and to triple check your admin API key is valid (though I think Bubble returns an error if it’s not)

I have worked with this API for a long time so and it used to work.  
I have triple checked the API Key and I know I am calling the version-test endpoint.
