How can I generate an auth_token with send_message scope?

[Igor Urdenko FX]

I am trying to create a Java application that will be sending messages after some process finishes. According to design, the application provides a list of failed data which can contain 1000+ data rows. Therefore sending just a notification is not the case for me.

I decided that I will use file sharing using /v2/room/{room_id_or_name}/share/file call.

This call should be done with send_message scope but I can't find how to make it.

Could someone please help me with that?

I am using Postman to send messages to /v2/room/{room_id_or_name}/share/file but I always receive 

{
 "error": {
 "code": 401,
 "message": "Authenticated requests only. See https://www.hipchat.com/docs/apiv2/auth for more information.",
 "type": "Unauthorized"
 }
}

Hi Igor,

I would suggest you reach out to our developer community at https://community.developer.atlassian.com/c/hipchat-development so that you'll be able to get a better guidance.

Additionally, do try to generate a token from your profile for v2 API at https://www.hipchat.com/account/api
