Autodesk Forge API a-401 Error

Question

I'm trying to make a simple forge test work.

I am been using this basic git project: https://github.com/leefsmp/view.and.data-boilerplate

what i did so far:

1. i created an account.
2. implemented the creds in the config file
3. uploaded a file to models.autodesk.io using my secret key. 4 i took the udn and passed it into the viewer.js file.
4. ran npm install
5. npm run

when i go to the localhost:3000 i still get :

dXJuOmFkc2sub2JqZWN0czpvcy5vYmplY3Q6bW9kZWwyMDE2LTExLTExLTEyLTQxLTA3LXlldmJwbHl0Yzkya3Y2cGtqdW10Z2F5ZnJ3dTAvUkEtUy1CdWlsZGluZy5ydnQ:1 GET https://developer.api.autodesk.com/viewingservice/v1/dXJuOmFkc2sub2JqZWN0cz…TEyLTQxLTA3LXlldmJwbHl0Yzkya3Y2cGtqdW10Z2F5ZnJ3dTAvUkEtUy1CdWlsZGluZy5ydnQ 401 (Unauthorized) viewer.js:210 Access was denied to a network resource (HTTP 403).

The buttons for the load and unload extension are visible.

any ideas what i'm missing here?

I think you are looking at a deprecated repo, if you want to start with the use of boilerplate samples of the API this is a better option for you.
