Error getting access token
Solved!Posted in General by Ritej Bisaria Sun Jan 22 2017 13:51:59 GMT+0000 (Coordinated Universal Time)·9·Viewed 6,586 times
I am trying to initiate the access token generation using the post api call provided in the documentation.
This is my code:
var myJSONObject = {};
myJSONObject.client_id = clientId;
myJSONObject.client_secret = clientSecret;
myJSONObject.grant_type = 'test_credentials';
request
.post('https://test.instamojo.com/oauth2/token/')
.set('Content-Type', 'application/json;charset=utf-8')
.send(myJSONObject)
.end(function(err, response, body) {
console.log(response);
res.json({
success:true,
error:null,
data:response
});
});
I am getting a response of
{
error: 'unsupported_grant_type'
}
Please if you could guide me in the direction of what i am doing wrong?
The client type should be "client_credentials"
grant_type *
sorry posted the wrong code
var myJSONObject = {};
myJSONObject.client_id = clientId;
myJSONObject.client_secret = clientSecret;
myJSONObject.grant_type = 'client_credentials';
and with these credentials im getting:
error:
{ [Error: cannot POST /oauth2/token/ (400)]
status: 400,
text: '{"error": "unsupported_grant_type"}',
method: 'POST',
path: '/oauth2/token/' },
You are sending the parameters as
json
. Send them as form-data instead.marked this as solved
i did, that's also not doing the trick.
My code is in NodeJS :

Do you have Node JS specific snippets which I could maybe have a look at.
