Replace the placeholders; the documentation says exactly where credentials go.

curl -X GET "https://api.twitter.com/1.1/account/settings.json" \
  -H "Accept: application/json"

const response = await fetch("https://api.twitter.com/1.1/account/settings.json", {
  method: "GET",
  headers: {
    "Accept": "application/json",
  },
});
const data = await response.json();
console.log(data);

    "https://api.twitter.com/1.1/account/settings.json",
    headers={
