I am trying to return an OAuth 2 response code for an OAuth response token. However, my request returns the following error which has zero results in google. I tried changing response_type
to "token" instead of "code" but that didn't work either.
OAuth 2 parameters can only have a single value: response_type
Request Details:
scope=https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.email
client_secret=_____
response_type=code
grant_type=authorization_code
redirect_uri=http://localhost/folder/
client_id=____.apps.googleusercontent.com
code=_____
I'm sending this second-step payload to POST https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth
What is wrong with my request?
I just realized that there is the https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/token
URL that should be used for this request. However, changing to that URL now gives:
HTTP/1.0 400 Bad Request
Cache-Control: no-cache, no-store, max-age=0, must-revalidate
Pragma: no-cache

{
"error" : "invalid_request"
}
Removing the response_type
and changing the URL like above solved this.
After receiving the authorization code you have to ask '/o/oauth2/token' for the access token. This request takes no 'scope' and no 'response_type' parameters. See the Google documentation for more details.
