How to set multiple Oauth2 scopes in Postman

Question

I'm trying to retrieve a course work for a course using the Google Classroom API. For this it's required multiple scopes. I can get this working from Java so I believe the list of scopes is correct. However, when trying from Postman, I get a 403 "Request had insufficient authentication scopes." error, which makes me think perhaps the way I'm adding the scopes together may not be correct. I've already tried using "+", ",", ";" and also spaces but none of them got rid of the error. Any ideas about what I may be missing please?

Thank you.

Update

Showing the Postman console which seems to identify only one scope for the request.

@PDHide thank you, but no. My question is specific to Postman. — Francislainy Campos, Oct 18 '21 at 11:24
@DaImTo I'm not pressing return, but separating by spaces instead. The way it looks is due to how Postman is doing the formatting once I add the fields there. — Francislainy Campos, Oct 18 '21 at 11:26
try following this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jjCauMywU2Q. Let me know if it doesnt work and i will give it a go. I dont have access to classroom but it really should be the same for any api. — Linda Lawton - DaImTo, Oct 18 '21 at 11:28
goto console and see how the headers are send for scope in postman @FrancislainyCampos — PDHide, Oct 18 '21 at 11:30
For requests that only require one scope yes, but this one requires multiple permissions. — Francislainy Campos, Oct 18 '21 at 11:41
I just tested it using both google analytics scopes and it works file. How are you using the access token exactly. — Linda Lawton - DaImTo, Oct 18 '21 at 11:47
I'm not requesting access tokens. I already have this. I'm trying to get course work from a course item. The access token is set under the access token field at the top of the picture. — Francislainy Campos, Oct 18 '21 at 11:53
If you look at your picture, the access token is a field at the top. There is where I set mine. — Francislainy Campos, Oct 18 '21 at 11:55

Perhaps you changed the scopes and forgot to request a new access token and click the use token button or are running on an old access token prior to requesting additional scopes?

just tested this using both Google analytics scopes.

as you can see the response gives me an access token containing both scopes that i requested.

Where are the multiple scopes? – Francislainy Campos Oct 18 '21 at 11:51
better image without the ... There are multiple scopes. Let me ask you did you change the scopes and forget to request a new access token and click the use token button? Are you running on an old access token prior to requesting additional scopes? really this shouldn't be that hard. – Linda Lawton - DaImTo Oct 18 '21 at 12:00
I'm not adding extra scopes. These are the ones required by the delete api. – Francislainy Campos Oct 18 '21 at 12:03
It's working now, thank you. You're right. I generated a new access token and it worked. Cheers. – Francislainy Campos Oct 18 '21 at 12:07
If you'd like to edit your answer I can mark it as accepted as your comment is actually what fixed it and not what is there before that. – Francislainy Campos Oct 18 '21 at 12:08
Be my guest. Glad you got it working you were driving me crazy. It shouldnt be that hard :) it was why i created the video. Maybe i should create a new one with two scopes and clicking the button everytime :) – Linda Lawton - DaImTo Oct 18 '21 at 12:09
