OAuth token for a third-party integration

Edward Zulyevic

I'm trying to generate an OAuth token for a third-party integration using the standard Trello authorization URL:

https://trello.com/1/authorize?key=MY_API_KEY&name=MyApp&expiration=never&response_type=token&scope=read,write 

The authorization page loads correctly and shows the permissions list, but the Allow button is completely unresponsive and cannot be clicked. I've tried:

• Chrome (regular and incognito mode)

• Safari

• Multiple devices

• The callback_method=fragment variant

My API key is valid, I can see it at power-ups/admin. The issue is specifically the Allow button not being clickable on the authorization page.

 

Has anyone else experienced this? Is there a workaround to generate the token without using the browser auth page?

Thank you in advance!

Ed

Hi Ed!

The issue is that the "Allow" button does not become active immediately after the page loads.

It usually takes about 10 seconds for the button to become responsive. This is a standard behavior on the Trello authorization page to ensure the user has time to review the permissions. Try waiting for at least 10 seconds without refreshing the page, and the button should become clickable.
