// Setting the AuthToken property causes the "Authorization: Bearer <token>" header to be added to each request.
// Set AuthToken equal to your token without the keyword "Bearer".
http.AuthToken = @"Your access token";

// Send the GET request and get the response text (assuming you know beforehand that the response will be text, such as JSON, XML, HTML, etc.)
