Quickbooks php curl authenticated GET request fails

I have set up a company in the QuickBooks developer portal, and have successfully created an OAuth token (which I can refresh as specified in this answer). So, unlike the majority of these questions, this is not about OAuth... I'm using bare PHP here, as I cannot use the SDK for technical reasons.

After getting the OAuth token, I am trying to perform the next API call from the API playground, getting the company information. I effectively call the QB API with this code:

($query is /v3/company/<companyID>/companyinfo/<companyID> (companyID is the "Realm ID" from the API playground), $base is the sandbox-URL (same as "Sandbox Base URL" in the header), $access_tokens["access"] is the OAuth access token; $url is https://${base}${query})

$headers = array(
    "GET " . $query . " HTTP/2",
    "Host: " . $base,
    "Accept: application/json",
    "Authorization: Bearer " . $access_tokens["access"],
    "Production Base URL: https://quickbooks.api.intuit.com",
    "Sandbox Base URL: https://sandbox-quickbooks.api.intuit.com"
);

$curl = curl_init($url);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,true);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLINFO_HEADER_OUT, true);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_HEADER, true);
$output = curl_exec($curl);

After the call, the value of $output is:

HTTP/2 400 
date: Tue, 31 Aug 2021 14:42:55 GMT
content-type: text/plain
content-length: 11
server: envoy

Bad Request

The request headers (as returned by the QB server via curl_getinfo) are:

GET /v3/company/4...0/companyinfo/4...0 HTTP/2
Host: sandbox-quickbooks.api.intuit.com
accept: application/json
authorization: Bearer e...Q
production base url: https://quickbooks.api.intuit.com
sandbox base url: https://sandbox-quickbooks.api.intuit.com

(the auth token and company ID have been cut)

If I call the URL directly in a browser, I get a 401 (authentication error) as expected, so I assume the OAuth part works (as I said, I can successfully retrieve an access token and refresh it). I'm just wondering if there is anything else that I'm doing wrong which causes the QB API call to fail?

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? [closed]

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? public fucntion __construct(Application $app, $Router $roouter) { } I have read the documentation and some online tutorial but I can find any clear explanation. I am learning Laravel and I am wondering where does this kernel constructor receives its arguments from. "POSTMOTERM" CLARIFICATION: Here is more clarity.I have checked the boostrap/app.php and it is only used for boostrapping the interfaces into the container class. What is not clear to me is where and how the Kernel class is instatiated and the arguments passed to the object calling the constructor.Something similar to; obj = new kernel(arg1,arg2) or, is the framework using some magic functions somewhere? Special gratitude to those who burn their eyeballs and brain cells on this trivia before it goes into a full blown menopause alias "MARKED AS DUPLICATE". To some of the itchy-finger keyboard warriors, a.k.a The mods,because I believe in th...
