title: Google+ API get people "me"
body: <p>After <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/7501938/access-token-google">struggling to authenticate</a> on the Google+ API, I finally succeed to retrieve my info with <a href="https://www.googleapis.com/plus/v1/people/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://www.googleapis.com/plus/v1/people/</a>{MyUserId}?key={ApiKey}</p>
  
  <p>However, despite I did obtain an access token with the scope <a href="https://www.googleapis.com/auth/plus.me" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://www.googleapis.com/auth/plus.me</a> I cannot request "me" : <a href="https://www.googleapis.com/plus/v1/people/me?key=" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://www.googleapis.com/plus/v1/people/me?key=</a>{ApiKey}</p>
  
  <p>I end up with an 401 unauthorised request... It's late and I don't get what I'm missing.</p>
  
  <p>Here is my code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>       string apiUrl = "https://www.googleapis.com/plus/v1/people/me?key={my api key";
  
          HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(apiUrl);
          request.Method = HttpMethod.GET.ToString();
  
          try
          {
              using (HttpWebResponse response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse())
              {
                 =&gt; 401 error
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Thank you for your help!</p>
