Authentication fails

[frankmeeuwsen]

I tried a plain copy from your template with my own .env credentials. I made them as follows (fake handle & app-password of course

BSKY_PASSWORD=here-goes-app-pw
BSKY_HANDLE=myFabHandle

But I get an error when I build and run

XRPCError: Invalid identifier or password
at ServiceClient.call (/node_modules/@atproto/api/dist/index.js:7099:15)
at process.processTicksAndRejections (node:internal/process/task_queues:95:5)
at async BskyAgent.login (/node_modules/@atproto/api/dist/index.js:14759:19)
at async Bot.run (file:///dist/lib/bot.js:35:9)
at async file:///dist/index.js:3:14 {
status: 401,
error: 'AuthenticationRequired',
success: false

I changed the handle and password to a string, added them directly in config.ts line 14 and 15 but no luck. I tried the actual password but still no change in error. Might there be a change with the @atproto API? Anything else I can test?

Hi Frank,
I received the same error but solved it by deleting the @ from the handle in .env, online username.bsky.social
Maybe this helps.
