Explanation of error messages

[bu...@cetinburak.com]

Hi,

Is there any place that explains the error messages?

The exactly the same call that was working yesterday returns "Authentication credentials were not provided" today. And I can't find the error message online.

Thanks

Were you using the access token to make the call. This is usually the message that is seen when the Access Token is either not supplied or has expired.

If the access token has expired it needs to be exchanged for a new access token using the refresh token.

I continually get this error while using the implicit flow. 
I'm calling this endpoint - https://sandbox.bluebutton.cms.gov/v1/fhir/Patient/-20140000008325

with the following curl command

curl --header "Authorization: Bearer oKmvvVTstGPDDUbure9NR63P10kgTb" https://sandbox.bluebutton.cms.gov/v1/fhir/Patient/-20140000008325

Is there something I'm missing?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

I'm trying to access Open API like below but every time it returns "{ "detail": "Authentication credentials were not provided." }"

curl -X 'GET' \ 'https://sandbox.bluebutton.cms.gov/v2/fhir/Coverage/' \ -H 'accept: application/json' \ -H 'Authorization: Bearer LzRgKRFsz6CYHUYMhpyb27kNbCjTLh'

Can some suggest what I'm doing wrong?

Hi  Mark Scrimshire,
Could you please share sample or doc to get new access token using refresh token, if previous one is expired. Currently there is not sample call available on blue button docs for getting new access token if it is expired. Instead we need to repeat whole process of authenticating beneficiary in order to get new token.

Thanks

FYI

Following is the curl call to refresh access token if it is expired. Thanks to  Brady Fausett.

Token Refresh CURL Example:BB_SERVER="<BB2 sandbox or prod URL>"
BB_CLIENT_ID="<your app's client ID>"
BB_CLIENT_SECRET="<your app's client SECRET>"REFRESH_TOKEN="<your refresh token associated with a previously granted access token>"curl -s -w "%{http_code}" -X POST "${BB_SERVER}/v1/o/token/" \
    -u "${BB_CLIENT_ID}:${BB_CLIENT_SECRET}" \
    -d "grant_type=refresh_token&client_id=${BB_CLIENT_ID}&refresh_token=${REFRESH_TOKEN}"EXAMPLE RETURN FROM CURL COMMAND:    {"access_token": "wlRtbVkXzUdE9Kcjc8wWnpRmJ7KuuC", "expires_in": 36000, "token_type": "Bearer", "scope": "patient/ExplanationOfBenefit.read patient/Coverage.read", "refresh_token": "gzKxj0JkKamuaOWZRaIAJyfL3e9CZW", "patient": "-19990000000003"}200
