Hi all, I am trying to test the API call to Authorize RingCentral from Postman and I am receiving 'Could not complete oauth login' error. Attached the screen shot of my request.

Access Token URL: https://platform.devtest.ringcentral.com/restapi/oauth/token

Thanks!

I don't use postman very often and I don't even know how to bring up the UI as shown in your screenshot.

Could you please tell me how to reproduce the issue quickly? Especially how can I bring up the "GET NEW ACCESS TOKEN" dialog?

Above works like a charm for me.

When you click the "Request Token" button, there will be a modal window. Isn't it the same for you?

By the way, I am using PostMan Version 6.3.0 (6.3.0) for macOS

I updated Postman and I am using same version. Now i am receiving the following error

{    "error" : "invalid_grant",    "error_description" : "Redirect URIs do not match",    "errors" : [ {      "errorCode" : "OAU-109",      "message" : "Redirect URIs do not match"    } ]

}

I gave redirect uri as https://www.getpostman.com/oauth2/callback

Can you tell me what would be the redirect URI? I never worked on OAuth2 API call and I am really confused.

It is working. I tried with another app in RingCentral and it is working now. Thanks for your help.

Hey Tyler, is it possible to make the authorize call automatically? or we need to login manually to authorize the request?
