Nightbot Oauth2 help

[ruukil_na]

Hi All,

I’ve been trying to make a little app that might be useful for some 24/7 streams and stuff, but that’s not what I’m here about. I was able to follow the guide up until step 4. of the #authorization-code-flow but now I’m stuck. For background, I am still a beginner but I’m learning but the responses to everyone else seemed pretty helpful so I thought I’d ask.

https://api.nightbot.tv/oauth2/token?grant_type=authorization_code&client_id=CLIENT_ID&client_secret=CLIENT_SECRET&code=CODE&redirect_uri=http://localhost

{“status”:404,“message”:“Not Found”}

Heya, for that step you need to make a POST request. GET request will throw 404 error.

Thank you, I ended up using Postman to get the access token after fiddling around with other methods first. Postman made it too easy so now to figure out testing!
