-H "Authorization: Zoho-oauthtoken 1000.8cb99dxxxxxxxxxxxxx9be93.9b8xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxf"
```

```deluge
response = invokeurl
[
	url :"https://www.zohoapis.com/creator/v2.1/meta/applications"
	type :GET
	connection:"zoho-creator"
];
info response;
```

```java
package main.java.org.example;

import okhttp3.HttpUrl;
import okhttp3.OkHttpClient;
import okhttp3.Request;
import org.json.JSONException;
import org.json.JSONObject;

public class ApplicationsApi
{
    public static void main(String[] args) throws JSONException
    {
        OkHttpClient client = new OkHttpClient();

        HttpUrl.Builder urlBuilder = HttpUrl.parse("https://www.zohoapis.com/creator/v2.1/meta/applications").newBuilder();
        Request request = new Request.Builder()
                .url(urlBuilder.toString())
                .method("GET", null)
                .addHeader("Authorization", "Zoho-oauthtoken 1000.8cb99dxxxxxxxxxxxxx9be93.9b8xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxf")
                .build();
        try
        {
            JSONObject response = new JSONObject(client.newCall(request).execute().body().string());
        }
        catch (Exception e)
        {
            System.out.println("Exception while making the API request.");
        }
    }
}
```

```javascript

}

try {
    let response = fetch("https://www.zohoapis.com/creator/v2.1/meta/applications", {
