Hi @Bhagwant Singh,

Since you're planning to use your script on your account only (personal, non team account), make sure no any team scope is active in your application' permissions! Seems like there is least one such scope and that's why it's forced/expected a team account to be logged in.

Hope this helps.

@Bhagwant Singh Yes, as Здравко said, it sounds like you have enabled team scopes on your app, but don't have a team account. You can disable the team scopes on your app using the "Permissions" tab of the app's page on the App Console.
