I'm trying to implement Google OAuth 2 to get access to Google APIs. I follow this guide, using server-side scenario.
I have no problem with getting the code, server redirects to localhost (which is the only server allowed in redirect URIs for now).
To achieve this, I go to https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth?client_id=whatever.apps.googleusercontent.com&redirect_uri=http://localhost/&scope=https://www.google.com/m8/feeds/&response_type=code
page.
Then, I tried using curl
(as in guide) to test, if Google's server responds with access token. However, it seems to fail very hard. Only response I can get is {"error":"invalid_client"}
. I'm sure I provide everything Google wants me to provide - code, client ID, client secret, redirect URI (localhost) and grant_type=authorization_code
.
Whole curl
command line is:
curl https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/token -d "code=<code>&client_id=whatever.apps.googleusercontent.com&client_secret=<won't tell!>&redirect_uri=http://localhost&grant_type=authorization_code"
Am I missing something? How can I exchange code for access token?
Did you urlencode
your client secret and redirect url? That works for me.
Should be http%3A%2F%2Flocalhost
instead of https://localhost
.
