If i try pure api endpoint it does work ok..

{{API_URL}}/users/{user}/lists

[michalss]

Ok this is strange but List need to be public, but this is wrong it should also work if the list is private.

This looks like an authorization problem.
OAuth for {{API_URL}}/users/{user}/lists is optional.
Did you set the _client's authorization like described in the documentation?
Without authorization only public lists will be returned and with authorization public and private lists.

im always authorized with token an it is valid... check the code, If i would not be auth i would never be able to read my own Username
This would not

var user = await _client.Users.GetSettingsAsync();

work otherwise

[henrikfroehling]

Sorry, you're right. I missed the line.

Did you try setting _client.Configuration.ForceAuthorization = true?

[michalss]

works with force, but i dont get why this is needed..

[henrikfroehling]

The Trakt API has endpoints that require OAuth authorization and endpoints where authorization is optional.
The endpoints where authorization is optional are not used in the library with forced authorization.
Instead, authorization is treated as opt-in.
But basically, it doesn't matter which behavior is used as the default.
It's just a decision made that the default is what is specified in the Trakt API documentation.
If you want to explicitly use authorization, enable the configuration flag.
If it were the other way around, you would still need to set a configuration flag for optional authorization.
