I'm a newbie in postman. I'm trying to automate the process of refreshing Access token using pre-request script of postman as mentioned in the below document
Pre-request Code:
let tokenUrl = 'https://oauth.brightcove.com/v4/access_token';
let clientId = '-----------------------------------------';
let clientSecret ='---------------------------------------';
let getTokenRequest = {
method: 'POST',
url: tokenUrl,
auth: {
type: "basic",
basic: [
{ key: "username", value: clientId },
{ key: "password", value: clientSecret }
]
},
body: {
mode: 'urlencoded',
urlencoded: [
{ key: 'grant_type', value: 'client_credentials' }
]
}
};
pm.sendRequest(getTokenRequest, (err, response) => {
let jsonResponse = response.json(),
newAccessToken = jsonResponse.access_token;
console.log({ err, jsonResponse, newAccessToken })
pm.environment.set('accessToken', newAccessToken);
pm.variables.set('accessToken', newAccessToken);
});
While running the api, postman console shows the following error
{{err: null, jsonResponse: {…}, newAccessToken: undefined} err: null jsonResponse: {…} error: "invalid_client" error_description: "The "client_id" parameter is missing, does not name a client registration that is applicable for the requested call, or is not properly authenticated." newAccessToken: undefined
Access Token API Documentation
Stuck with this error for almost 4-5 hrs. Can anyone tell me what's the issue here?
