Try basic auth, or include header X-TrackerToken.
Which seems to me is asking you to submit the token as a X-TrackerToken header.
You can try something like this, though I can't find the pivotaltracker documentation.
$ch = curl_init('https://www.pivotaltracker.com/services/v5/me');
// or just remove the customrequest too
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, 'GET');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array(
'X-TrackerToken: 858e234da*****'
);
$result = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
update
Found the documentation.
It shows something like:
export TOKEN='your Pivotal Tracker API token'
curl -X GET -H "X-TrackerToken: $TOKEN" "https://www.pivotaltracker.com/services/edge/stories/558"
