Very nice. Thank you so much. Indeed it was a great tutorial. We really appreciate your efforts to make this for all of us in very easy way. I spent yesterday good amount of time in configuring above but failed. Reason, did not knew what is important and what to ignore. 1) Like you mentioned in case of grant_type password callback URL in salesforce connected app does not have any significance this is great t to know other videos did not mentioned that. .2) when using password grant_type we need to get access code using postman do it by post by passing url in endpoint and key value in headers not by passing param or going in options authorization. Basically some knowledge of postman is required like key value comes under param and it comes under header and also it comes under body form data as well.so following exact screens you show is very imp.

Great Tutorial.. I am new to Postman and SalesForce and this was a lifesaver . But after I tried all the steps, I was still getting an 'INVALID SESSION ID" error when making the final API call. Googled for the issue and the issue was that in Postman 'Settings' the 'Follow Authorization header' was OFF. After turning it ON it started working. Would be great if you could add that point also into the video.
