POST /token
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
grant_type=urn:ietf:params:oauth:grant-type:jwt-bearer&
assertion=<JWT>&
client_id=<client_id>&
client_secret=<client_secret>
Official Docs: https://box-content.readme.io/docs/app-auth
The way I attempted to do this is as follows:
var boxHeaders = {
'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'
};
var boxOptions = {
url: 'https://api.box.com/oauth2/token',
method: 'POST',
headers: boxHeaders,
form: {
'grant_type': 'urn:ietf:params:oauth:grant-type:jwt-bearer',
'assertion': boxtoken,
'client_id': 'myclientid',
'client_secret': 'myclientsecret'
}
};
request.post(boxOptions, function(err, response, body) {
console.log(body);
});
I get the following error:
{
"error":"invalid_request",
"error_description":"Invalid grant_type parameter or parameter missing"
}
Obviously the grant type is incorrect but I have no idea how to go about constructing the string based on the Box API example. If anyone can help and even expose me to some good articles or tutorials on how to do this, that would be great!
Thank you.
