The bug is reported in #443. I'm opening this ticket to specifically request a discussion about how to avoid breaking changes in a patch version. The PR that introduced the change is #365. The release of that change as 1.11.1 was PR #437 . It looks like there needs to be a test that a valid token can be decoded?

@danking Yes, it looks like we need a system test against the live endpoint.

I made two bad assumptions here, that the v1 and v3 endpoints returned the same payload, and that the codebase already had a test for it. I'll use this issue to track the addition of the test.

Thanks for filing an issue!
