HOW TO do authorization code call in POSTMAN

Abhishek Jaswal_lysv7o

I am asking for JIRA software 

the way to do OAUTH2.0 authentication call is here: https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/oauth-2-3lo-apps/

from this document I got to know how to authenticate using OAUTH2.0. But the thing is I have to put the Authorization code URI in Browser to get the auth code you can refer to this

then after that I can make the access token request with the help of that AUTH code

but what I want to know is , how can I do this AUTHORIZATION CALL  thing in POSTMAN

How can I do the Authorization call inside postman?????

Hello @Abhishek Jaswal ,

 

If I understand correctly you are following the steps (quoted below) of the section named Implementing OAuth 2.0 (3LO) of the documentation page you linked, and you are asking how to execute step #2 (Exchange the authorization code for an access token) using POSTMAN. Is this correct?

Implementing OAuth 2.0 (3LO)

Once you have enabled OAuth 2.0 (3LO) for your app, you can implement it in your app's code. There are a number of key parts to this:

1. Direct the user to the authorization URL to get an authorization code
2. Exchange the authorization code for an access token
3. Authorize any calls to the product APIs using the access token
4. Check site access for the app

 

If my understanding is correct, then you can just use the same data from the Curl example that is just below the title of the second step and put it in the corrispettive fields in Postman:

curl --request POST \ 
--url 'https://auth.atlassian.com/oauth/token' \ 
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \ 
--data '{"grant_type": "authorization_code","client_id": "YOUR_CLIENT_ID","client_secret": "YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET","code": "YOUR_AUTHORIZATION_CODE","redirect_uri": "https://YOUR_APP_CALLBACK_URL"}'

 

Find in the below screenshot the corrispettive fields in Postman:

 

Of course you also have to add the content-type:
