Error while getting acess token from IBM Connections - ibm-sbt

I am able to get authorization token, but getting error at access Token, These are the steps I am doing now,
1.Obtain the code:
https://{host}/oauth2/endpoint/connectionsProvider/authorize?response_type=code&client_id=sample_application&redirect_uri=http://{host}
I got back something like:
http://{host}/?code=XMQPNpxCxkRCfIXMFbWiTQVD4PcM11
2.Try to get access token using: POST method:
POST https://{host}/oauth2/endpoint/connectionsProvider/token?grant_type=authorization_code&redirect_uri=http://{host}&client_id=sample_application&client_secret=pIEaHOQ6odz0Vr9fKTmiS0NgQF2uGAUDl2i9ZHS38qE7TGZD2nn3RcSl2bEI
With payload data as: code=XMQPNpxCxkRCfIXMFbWiTQVD4PcM11
In the 2nd steps only I am getting error.
Please advice me.

Resolved the issue the problem was the header we were sending was MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON but the token end point api expects MediaType.APPLICATION_FORM_URLENCODED, so by changing the header the oauth flow worked.

Why does my login endpoint in django knox throw "Bad request..." error?

I used files from "https://github.com/Omkar0231/Django-Login-API" with as is. The login request from Postman is resulting in error, "detail": "JSON parse error - Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0)", while the terminal shows "Bad request...".
The developer of the source code in above git has also explained it in a video, "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6d0fiPj0dsA", however, in video everything seems to be working as expected.
Whatever I understood from Googling, I thought that a bearer token is to be included in the login request as header. But I don't know where to find the bearer token in my Django app. However, in the video, the original author/developer did not include any such header token for the login request from Postman.
Please help me figure out the issue.

Random errors acquiring Microsoft oauth2 token via golang.org/x/oauth2

I use the standard go library golang.org/x/oauth2 to acquire an OAuth2 token from Microsoft users.
This is the oauth2 config I use:
return oauth2.Config{
ClientID: clientID,
ClientSecret: clientSecret,
Endpoint: microsoft.AzureADEndpoint("common"),
Scopes: []string{
"https://graph.microsoft.com/.default",
},
}
This is how I get the redirect URL:
oauth2Config.AuthCodeURL(state, oauth2.ApprovalForce, oauth2.AccessTypeOffline)
And this is how I exchange the code acquired in my oauth2 callback to the oauth2 token:
oauth2Config.Exchange(ctx, code)
I use the same code for integrating with github, google cloud platform, bitbucket and digitalocean. It has been working fine for me and it does work with Microsoft but sometimes I randomly get one of the following errors:
AADSTS90013 Invalid input received from the user
or
AADSTS900144: The request body must contain the following parameter: 'grant_type'.
And I don't understand what might be the reason. The first error potentially could be caused by some JS bugs in the Microsoft consent screen. The second error makes no sense – oauth2 lib sets grant_type value correctly, I search for this error and it says the issue could be in the incorrect encoding which should be x-www-form-urlencoded but I've looked up oauth2 library and confirmed that's exactly what it does.
Or maybe there's a timeout for a repeated acquisition of a token under the same user.
UPD: I get these errors during the exchange of a code to a token
UPD2: I started to get oauth2 errors randomly with other providers, such as DigitalOcean, the errors also happens during the code to a token exchange. Errors like this:
ERROR STACKTRACE: oauth2: cannot fetch token: 400 Bad Request
Response: {"error":"bad_request","error_description":"invalid semicolon separator in query"}{"error":"invalid_request","error_description":"The request is missing a required parameter, includes an unsupported parameter value, or is otherwise malformed."}
could not get auth token
I've looked up values in my oauth2 config, it's all correct, the values however are not url encoded (I assume oauth2 lib handles this).
I've recently upgraded my go to 1.17.6
UPD3: I've noticed that my oauth2 configs both for DigitalOcean and Microsoft didn't have AuthStyle specified, so I've set it manually to oauth2.AuthStyleInParams. But this still didn't resolve the issue. After a few repeated attempts with DigitalOcean it started to randomly return the following error:
Response: {"error":"bad_request","error_description":"invalid semicolon separator in query"}{"error":"invalid_request","error_description":"The request is missing a required parameter, includes an unsupported parameter value, or is otherwise malformed."}
which I don't even think is a valid error, there's no semicolon symbol neither in the request URL nor the body
UPD4. It may sound stupid but when I restart my app (I run-debug it via GoLand) DigitalOcean oauth works just fine until I connect a Microsoft account via oauth2 (which also works fine), but then if I connect (reconnect) DigitalOcean account again then it just stops working ¯_(ツ)_/¯
UPD5. Below is the debug watch of doTokenRoundTrip function inside oauth2 library. The token exchange request returns 400 bad request
The request body:
client_id=[redacter]&client_secret=[redacted]&code=e50e6dc91ec6b855becdef7a32cc4e28684851ccf385b2f6bb667ed6ec1172df&grant_type=authorization_code&redirect_uri=http%3A%2F%2Flocalhost%3A8080%2Fv1%2Fdigitalocean%2Foauth2%2Fcallback
The URL and the body both looks good to me. However this returns the following error:
Response: {"error":"bad_request","error_description":"invalid URL escape "%\x9b\x06""}{"error":"invalid_request","error_description":"The request is missing a required parameter, includes an unsupported parameter value, or is otherwise malformed."}
UPD6. Exchange request headers:
The issue caused by the extra headers. Normally it should be only Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded header but as you can see above there are extra headers including Content-Encoding: gzip which probably causes the issues. These headers added after I connect Microsoft account via oauth2, more specifically is because I use microsoft graph sdk (github.com/microsoftgraph/msgraph-sdk-go) after acquiring the token. This SDK implements RoundTripper interface that eventually adds extra headers.
Submitted the issue to graph sdk https://github.com/microsoftgraph/msgraph-sdk-go/issues/91
I think second error refers to the grant_type missing in the config
grant_type:authorization_code,
code: {code you got from the authorization step},
client_secret: ****

403 error response from IIS on almost alternate request while load testing api

I have a web api which is deployed on IIS.
Api's are going through load test using load runner and almost on all alternative api call, getting 403 error response code, struggling to identify the issue, call is not going to the API, its returned back from IIS
I am doing bearer token authorization, somehow token which were incoming with each request were not valid, that is why the issue was occurring, to overcome this we have increased the lifetime of token to 1 hour and request load test team to generate the token once and send that token only with each request so that we can now see the proper execution time for each end point.
403 error indicates that access to the requested URL by the client is Forbidden for some reason. you need to provide detailed error message snapshot and what is the sub status code. and check that you assign this permission to the site folder:1) IIS_IUSRS,2)NETWORK SERVICE,3)IUSR

google-api-ruby-client 0.9 tokeninfo lacks an example

I thought that using Google's official ruby client API would be the easiest way to validate an access_token that hits my backend server.
Not really.
Version 0.9 has not a simple sample of validating an access token and API docs doesn't help neither.
I have got this far:
require 'google/apis/oauth2_v2'
oauth = Google::Apis::Oauth2V2::Oauth2Service.new
oauth.tokeninfo({access_token: 'aaaaaaaa...'})
=> Google::Apis::ClientError: Invalid request
docs on google-api-client-0.9.4/generated/google/apis/oauth2_v2/service.rb say that tokeninfo method raises:
[Google::Apis::ServerError] An error occurred on the server and the request can be retried
[Google::Apis::ClientError] The request is invalid and should not be retried without modification
[Google::Apis::AuthorizationError] Authorization is required
How can I tell that the token is invalid ?!?
Can you guys share some examples ?

laravel-apidoc-generator + dingo api error "The token could not be parsed from the request"

Trying to generate API documentation via laravel-apidoc-generator, and get the following error:
I tried to use actAsUserId and header options and got the same error.
I have the same problem, and still have, but you can try to send authorization token via headers, and if that doesn't work, try to send the token as Query String Parameter. Neither of those work for me...
