Trello OAuth - 500 Server Error?

Victor Purolnik

I am trying to build an application using OAuth v1 with Trello as described here.

On the `OAuthGetRequestToken` request I am getting a `500 Server Error` with no further response back from Trello.

I am using a PHP library, however I can reproduce this just by running the following HTTP request in postman:

POST https://trello.com/1/OAuthGetRequestToken

with the following `Authorization` header (key, nonce and signature anonymized):

OAuth oauth_consumer_key="xxx", oauth_nonce="xxx", oauth_signature_method="HMAC-SHA1", oauth_timestamp="1535936680", oauth_version="1.0", oauth_callback="http%3A%2F%2Ftrello.test%2Fauth%2Ftrello%2Fcallback", oauth_signature="xxx"

Can anyone give me hints on how to debug this? Is my request malformed? Even that should get me a proper error message and not cause Trello to smack me with a 500 in the face

Thank you!

Hey Victor,

Just to confirm, you're using the OAuth secret listed at the bottom of trello.com/app-key, correct?

We have a working example of an OAuth flow here: https://glitch.com/edit/#!/trello-oauth. Though it is written in Node and requires the oauth npm package.

Hey Bentley,

while I didn't find a solution, I found a workaround.

I created a blank, new Trello account, and everything worked with the key+secret given there.

I am not sure what is wrong with my main account's credentials. In any case, I think the Trello API shouldn't return a 500 Internal Server Error.

You can easily reproduce it sending the POST request above with my API key (can DM or email it to you) and any nonce and signature.

Something must be going wrong somewhere...

All the best,

Victor
