For one thing, there is no example of what the URL should look like. It is not clear what the default scopes are, nor how to use multiple scopes in a URL.

Yet if I try to have an URL with:

> &scope=identity, identity.memberships  
> &scope=identity identity.memberships

I get an error page immediately. (Missing data)

Furthermore, I cannot seem to be able to find a complete list of the available scopes.

More specific to my issue, I am trying to obtain the currently\_entitled\_tiers of the user who just link their account to my server. There is no clear example on how to do this, despite being a fairly common task I imagine.

Querying `https://www.patreon.com/api/oauth2/v2/identity` works just fine, but only returns me the `user.id`, but querying `https://www.patreon.com/api/oauth2/v2/members/${userId}` returns me an authentication error or, more recently, a timeout. Given both requests are essentially a copy/paste, all I can think of is that I don’t have the scope… which the error message should hint at but does not.

Hope this is constructive feedback!
