To obtain the user's traits with an access token bearer, you can use the Ory Session Token to check the
<http://127.0.0.1/sessions/whoami>
endpoint. This endpoint will return the identity details of the user, including the traits. Here is an example of how to do this using curl:
Copy code
bash curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN" \   <https://playground.projects.oryapis.com/sessions/whoami> | jq
Replace
YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN
with the actual access token. The response will be a JSON object that includes the user's traits among other details. Please note that the URL
<https://playground.projects.oryapis.com/sessions/whoami>
is just an example. You should replace it with the actual URL of your Ory instance. For more details, you can refer to the [Ory documentation](https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/self-service/flows/user-login#api-clients).

In Ory Hydra, you can obtain user's traits by introspecting the access token. Here is an example of how to do this using the Ory Client SDK:
Copy code
javascript import { Configuration, OAuth2Api } from "@ory/client"  const ory = new OAuth2Api(   new Configuration({     basePath: `https://${process.env.ORY_PROJECT_SLUG}.<http://projects.oryapis.com|projects.oryapis.com>`,     accessToken: process.env.ORY_API_KEY,   }), )  export async function introspectToken(accessToken: string) {   const { data } = await ory.introspectOAuth2Token({ token: accessToken })   // data.active will be true or false   // data.ext will contain the user's traits }
In this example, replace
ORY_PROJECT_SLUG
and
ORY_API_KEY
with your actual project slug and API key. The
introspectToken
function will return the token introspection response which includes the user's traits in the
ext
field. Please note that this is just an example and the actual implementation may vary depending on your setup. For more details, you can refer to the [Ory Hydra documentation](https://www.ory.sh/docs/hydra/guides/oauth2-token-introspection).
