Hey thanks for the demo David. This helped me understand the workflow. I'd love to buy you a coffee and chat for a bit on how to use Oauth in my project

Hi David,

the is nice video.

i am try to generate new access token basis on your code but getting below error. Can you please help me what is exactly its saying to do.

below is the error which i am getting.

{
"error": "invalid_scope",
"error_description": "Invalid scope: oapi",
"scope": "data-reports:write data-reports:read reports:read reports:write"
}
Traceback (most recent call last):

access_token =

KeyError: 'access_token'




basically below is the code where i am stuck

response = request("POST", url, auth=(CLIENT_ID, CLIENT_SECRET), data=data)
print(json.dumps(response.json(), indent=4))
access_token =
print(access_token.text)

Thank you for this video David!
This definitely makes doing OAuth Client Credentials in Python clearer to me.
Would you mind sharing the code?
(I can't see what's happening above line 58 regarding includes etc.)

Thank you for the video. One qiuestion, Can the OAuth server be the same as the Resource server? I don't see why not

Hey David, thanks for sharing. Is there way to cache the token and reuse until it expires?

Why do you say "bottle of water" in a british accent at 4:27 haha?!
