I try to register an application, at this webpage, to upload some images to imgur.
After I select the "OAuth 2 authorization without a callback URL", enter the email, and submit the form, I will get the 400 error. As shown in the picture.
Why don't I get the successful message but the error one? Are there limits for a new user?
I see the help page at the imgur.com, and it recommends to post the question about api in here.

You are trying to access the incorrect url for your site, as stated in the log message your url is https://morning-crag-28829.herokuapp.com
I am trying to send Direct Message to a user who I follow and who follows me.
When I first tried to make a POSTMAN request as per the document here I was getting a HTTP 415 response, media type not supported. I looked up the Error code in their document and understood that this was happening because the callback_url needed to be whitelisted.
So I followed this guide to whitelist the callback_url and generate the access_request token , i.e oauth_token and oauth_secret here
So, was :
1. Get successfully oauth/request_token and got the Response: &oauth_callback_confirmed=true for the callback_url configured my app details. As far as I could tell, that's all I thought, I needed to do to whitelist the callback_url
2. Got oauth_verifier and final oauth_token and oauth_token_secret
But, after generating the outh_token and oauth_token_secret and using it to make the DM API call, Now I am getting
{
"errors": [
{
"code": 32,
"message": "Could not authenticate you."
}
] }
When I try to make a GET auth/authenticate call as documented here, I get a HTTP 403 with a message
Whoa there!
The request token for this page is invalid. It may have already been
used, or expired because it is too old. Please go back to the site or
application that sent you here and try again; it was probably just a
mistake.
I can see in the Documentation that https://api.twitter.com/1.1/direct_messages/events/new.json
Requires authentication? Yes (user context only)
I think I am missing something. Can anyone please help me point in the right direction as to what I need to be able to send DM to users successfully ?
I was also getting this error just now, I regenerated my API Key & Secret for the account and the Access Token & Secret for the application and then my POST request worked correctly.
I have recorded the script in JMeter, and while validating it, it is throwing an error for the winauth/sso, how to resolve it. my app has oAuth and me have to authenticate it.
I'm running the script for WinAuth, it gets highlighted in red color and under Response Body, it is displaying "Unauthorized"
I have added the HTTP Cookie Manager (check CookieManager.save.cookies=true in jmeter.properties), HTTP Authorization Manager.[images are added down the below for verification purpose]
I'm not able to view the Token_id also.
Images:
1. showing winAuth sso error
2. showing all parameters with its respective values.
You have to do at least three steps:
Add HTTP Cookie Manager (and check
CookieManager.save.cookies=true in jmeter.properties)
Add HTTP Authorization Manager
Using the Regular Expression Extractor extract Authentification token from the first request (from login page) and send it to the second requests.

I have been at this for sometime now and wanted to see if anyone had and idea of what I could be doing wrong. What I am trying to do is add a song to a playlist using the provided Spotify Web APIs. According to the documentation on this https://developer.spotify.com/documentation/web-api/reference/playlists/add-tracks-to-playlist/ I need to establish the scope of the user.
"adding tracks to the current user’s private playlist (including collaborative playlists) requires the playlist-modify-private scope" I have created the playlist as collaborative and I am using the login credentials of my personal account to reach this playlist I created. all this is under the same login.
What I am finding is that my scope is not getting added to my token on my call for my token causes a 403 error when I try to add the song.
Here is what that call looks like
https://accounts.spotify.com/authorize/?client_id=mynumber&response_type=code&scope=playlist-modify-private&redirect_uri=http:%2F%2Flocalhost:55141/Home/GetToken/
here are the docs on using authorization to get the correct token.
https://accounts.spotify.com/authorize/?client_id=894400c20b884591a05a8f2432cca4f0&response_type=code&scope=playlist-modify-private&redirect_uri=http:%2F%2Flocalhost:55141/Home/GetToken/
further more if I go into the dev support here
https://developer.spotify.com/documentation/web-api/reference/playlists/add-tracks-to-playlist/
and click the green try button and then request a new token it works.
Bottom line some how my request is not taking my scope request. Any Ideas?
Thanks
To get the token with a specific scope you need to go to the authorize endpoint and get the code. The code is what you want to get to be able http post to the endpoint https://accounts.spotify.com/api/token and get a token with your desired scopes. You can simply get the code by pasting a url like this in your browser...
https://accounts.spotify.com/authorize?client_id=<client_id>&response_type=code&scope=streaming%20user-read-email%20user-read-private&redirect_uri=<redirect_uri>
Only add %20 in between scopes if you have multiple ones
You will then be sent to spotify's website and they'll verify you want to do this. Once you verify it your browser will redirect you to what you set the redirect_uri to be in the url above. At the end of the url that you are sent to, you should be able to see the parameter name code with the code value assigned to it. You then get that code and put it in your http post body params to the https://accounts.spotify.com/api/token endpoint. Make sure you accurately follow the query params requirements in your post method.
An example of the post in python using the requests library:
authorization = requests.post(
"https://accounts.spotify.com/api/token",
auth=(client_id, client_secret),
data={
"grant_type": "authorization_code",
"code": <code>,
"redirect_uri": <redirect_uri>
},
)
authorization_JSON = authorization.json()
return authorization_JSON["access_token"]
In the end you should get a json that shows the scopes you set a long with a refresh the token later on to make more requests.
I know this answer is quite late but I was experiencing the same issue as well which is how I came across this question. I hope this helps anyone that sees this at a later date.

I want to implement the Google Drive API to my web application using NodeJS and I'm struggling when I try to get a token via OAuth.
I've copied the code from this guide and run the script using Node and it returns an error in this line:
var redirectUrl = credentials.installed.redirect_uris[0];
Googling around I found that I can set that variable as http://localhost:8080 and set the same value in the Authorized redirect URIs configuration in the Google Developers Console and that error goes away, fine, it works. Now it asks for a code that I should get by using an URL.
https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth?access_type=offline&scope=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.googleapis.com%2Fauth%2Fdrive.metadata.readonly&response_type=code&client_id=CLIENT_ID&redirect_uri=http%3A%2F%2Flocalhost%3A8080
Then I've added the client id and enter to that URL with Chrome and then returns a connection refused error. No clue what to do in here, I searched about my problem and I can't found an answer. By looking at the direction bar in Chrome I see that there's a parameter called code and after it, there's random numbers and letters. Like this:
http://localhost:8080/?code=#/r6ntY87F8DAfhsdfadf78F7D765lJu_Vk-5qhc#
If I add any of these values it returns this error...
Error while trying to retrieve access token { [Error: invalid_request] code: 400 }
Any ideas on what should I do? Thanks.
Did you follow all the directions on the page you indicated, including all of those in Step 1 where you create the credentials in the console and download the JSON for it? There are a few things to note about creating those credentials and the JSON that you get from it:
The steps they give are a little different from what I went through. They're essentially correct, but the "Go to credentials" didn't put me on the page that has the "OAuth Consent Screen" and "Credentials" tabs on the top. I had to click on the "Credentials" left navigation for the project first.
Similarly, on the "Credentials" page, my button was labeled "Create Credentials", not "Add Credentials". But it was a blue button on the top of the page either way.
It is very important that you select "OAuth Client ID" and then Application Type of "Other". This will let you create an OAuth token that runs through an application and not through a server.
Take a look at the client_secret.json file it tells you to download. In there, you should see an entry that looks something like "redirect_uris":["urn:ietf:wg:oauth:2.0:oob","http://localhost"] which is the JSON entry that the line you reported having problems with was looking for.
That "urn:ietf:wg:oauth:2.0:oob" is a magic string that says that you're not going to redirect anywhere as part of the auth stage in your browser, but instead you're going to get back a code on the page that you will enter into the application.
I suspect that the "connection refused" error you're talking about is that you used "http://localhost:8080/" for that value, so it was trying to redirect your browser to an application running on localhost... and I suspect you didn't have anything running there.
The application will prompt you to enter the code, will convert the code into the tokens it needs, and then save the tokens for future use. See the getNewToken() function in the sample code for where and how it does all this.
You need to use this code to exchange for a token. I'm not sure with nodejs how to go about this but in PHP I would post the details to the token exchange url. In javascript you post array would look similar to this ....
var query = {'code': 'the code sent',
'client_id': 'your client id',
'client_secret': 'your client secret',
'redirect_uri': 'your redirect',
'grant_type': 'code' };
Hope this helps
Change redirect uri from http://localhost:8080 to https://localhost:8080.
For this add SSL certificates to your server.
