Discord API 401: Unauthorized error

I'm trying to get audit logs from my server using discord API. I'm sending my authorization token in headers but it's still returning error 401.

My code:

headers = { 'authorization': AUTH_TOKEN } params = { 'limit':'50', 'user_id': USER_ID, 'action_type': '40', 'authorization': AUTH_TOKEN } r = requests.get(f' params=params) 

Output:

{"code": 0, "message": "401: Unauthorized"} 

I tried sending user-agent and stuff like that in headers but it doesn't seem to work.

If you're using a bot, you must prefix your Authorization header token with 'Bot'

i.e.

headers = { 'authorization' : 'Bot asdhgaisudg7asd', }
