Could you provide a link to the documentation for the endpoint you want to access? I can’t find it. My guess is that you need to fetch a specific user via ${api}/user/124356.

Docs here. My guess is wrong.

God, that documentation is annoying to read. I revise my revised opinion. Try providing a user ID or a username as query parameters in your API call.

const response = await fetch(`${api}/user?person_id=123456`, {
    method: "GET",
    headers: {
        "Content-Type": "application/json",
        "Authorization": `Bearer ${lemmyToken}`
    }
});

You need to provide the user ID (or username) of the account you want to fetch in the query parameters.
