Django OAuth Toolkit and POSTMAN - django

Question

I made a django OAuth server using Django OAuth Toolkit.
I've setup the code right and when I use CURL in the following way:
curl -X POST -d "grant_type=password&username=geethpw&password=abcabcabc" -u"wHsGgpsHZyw8ghnWbEPZC8f4AZLgJIPmoo50oNWp:ZQcXeQWnae0gmX0SMi6Xn6puBnhiphR2M80UC6ugmffbrUd66awhbguYgxtQ1ufahJZehj4RlGjYu06fHkVgO15TURttSozj27nshl0AhFfCVzUKqTDubBimTSsK4yDS" http://localhost:8000/o/token/
I get a response:
{"access_token": "glzwHLQNvUNQSOU5kFAoopgJxiNHcW", "token_type": "Bearer", "expires_in": 36000, "refresh_token": "5k6jvCd2UxaRUGHKONC2SqDukitG5Y", "scope": "read write groups"}Geeths-MacBook-Pro:~ geethwijewickrama$
Geeths-MacBook-Pro:~ geethwijewickrama$
which is expected.
But When I try postman to do the samething, I always get:
{
"error": "unsupported_grant_type"
}
My headers are:
Content-Type:application/x-www-form-urlencoded
If I remove this header I get:
{
"error": "invalid_client"
}
How can I test my APIs in postman?

Answer 1

Your postman body should be something like:
grant_type: <grant_type>
client_id: <client_id>
client_secret: <client_secret>
username: <username>
password: <password>
Try Bulkedit with these, hope this helps (Hope you have registered the app to obtain client_id and client_secret)

Answer 2

Get token from django-oauth-toolkit from JS:
async function getToken () {
let res = await fetch("https://<your_domain>/o/token/", {
body: new URLSearchParams({
grant_type: 'password',
username: '<user_name>',
password: '<user_pass>',
client_id: '<client_app_id>',
client_secret: '<client_pass>'
}),
headers: {
"Content-Type": "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
},
method: "POST"
})
return res.json();
}
console.log(await getToken());
Your client application authorisation grant type should be: "Resource owner password-based"
P.S. I've failed to get token via "Content-Type": "application/json", not sure why (django-oauth-toolkit documentation says nothing about that).
