My Question or Issue

This is my code and i assumer there is something wrong with my request however I am unsure of where it is coming from as I have requested a token, created the header and set the endpoint with the get request. I am open to any feedback

from dotenv import load_dotenv

import os

import base64

from requests import post,get

import requests

import json

import sys

load_dotenv()

client_id = os.getenv("CLIENT_ID")

client_secret = os.getenv("CLIENT_SECRET")

def get_token():

    auth_string = client_id +":" + client_secret

    auth_bytes = auth_string.encode("utf-8")

    auth_base64 = str(base64.b64encode(auth_bytes), "utf-8")

    #converts clinet id and secret and encodes them to a string so used in thr header

    url = "https://accounts.spotify.com/api/token"

    headers = {

        #associated with our request and post request sent to url

        "Authorization": "Basic " + auth_base64,

    #authorization header to send in authorization data and verify  evrything is correct to be sent back#

        "Content-Type": "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"

    }

    data = {"grant_type": "client_credentials",

            "scope":"user-top-read"}

    result = post(url, headers=headers,data = data)

    # to post(sends data as a rquest to the spotify web) the data we have gathered

    json_result = json.loads(result.content)

    #takes the returned json data(content)

    token = json_result["access_token"]

    return token

token = get_token()

def get_auth_header(token😞

    return {"Authorization": "Bearer " + token}

#creates dictionary holding token

#used for authorization header for future requests

authentication_header = get_auth_header(token)

print(authentication_header)

def get_top_tracks(token😞

    token = get_token()

    url = "https://api.spotify.com/v1/me/top/tracks?limit=10&time_range=short_term&type=tracks"

    response = get(url,headers=authentication_header)

    return(response)

    try:

        data = response.json()

        return(data)

    except ValueError:

        return("None")

    #function to send request top get top tracks

tracks = get_top_tracks(token)

print(tracks)

if tracks.status_code == 400 :

    error_message = tracks.text

    print("Error:",error_message)

else:

    print("nfn")
