So I generated access token and access token secret on Twitter
However's every time I make a GET request on Postman I get bad authentication data:
I copy & paste the access token after "Basic" in the Value so I don't know why it's not working?? I would be so grateful if anyone helped!!!
PS I didn't put anything in the authorization tab on Postman. Not sure if that's relevant:
You should be getting GET not POST for statuses/user_timeline as per Twitter API User Timeline
GET statuses/user_timeline

I am using google ads api, I have generated Access Token, Refresh Token, I have CustomerId of my Ads Manager account, my developer token still getting this error. **My ultimate goal is to generate Keyword ideas using google ads api **
You have to put your generated token inside your request-header. With that token inside the header, every request to your API is authorized.
You can see that you have an "Authorization"-Token with the empty value "Bearer". There you have to put in your token, that your API can check the token and validate it. Same thing with the developer-token. Your requests sends empty header values.
I want to get the Authorization code to generate ACCESS TOKEN and REFRESH TOKEN for my Application. I'm trying to get the job done using POSTMAN. But this seems not working. I'm attaching a screenshot of POSTMAN. Can you tell me what I am doing wrong?
Any useful suggestion or alternative solution is appreciated.

use this public collection as an example
It will be easier to do this using settings within the Postman GUI. There is an Authorization tab in which you can specify auth type, configure new tokens, add your client id & secret, etc.
After many tries, I figured it out myself. To Generate the Refresh token and access token the first time, I needed Authorization Code. I thought I need to generate it again and again but it Turns out I needed it only once and when I got the access_token and refresh_token, I can easily generate access_token by using refresh_token.
Here's the corrected API request flow-
Requesting Authorization code
Using Web
Requesting ACCESS TOKEN and REFRESH TOKEN
Regenerating Access Token using refresh token
magento REST API, how i will get token and token secret to be fill in
Postman REST resquest. I have only consumer key and consumer secret.
Please provide me the steps to follow.
First, you want to request a valid OAuth token and secret. Do this by hitting the /oauth/initiate URL of your Magento store with a GET parameter for oauth_callback. We're going to use httpbin so that we can echo anything that is passed to our callback. Make sure you have "Auto add parameters" checked on the OAuth 1.0 settings for Postman.
That will give you an oauth_token and oauth_token_secret, which are only temporary. These are referred to as a "request token" and secret. Save these values somewhere because you will need them later.
Now, assemble a new regular HTTP request to the /admin/oauth_authorize URL of your Magento store. This will return a login form where you can accept the oauth token and authorize your app, however since we're using Postman we aren't able to interact with the form.
Instead, view the source and pull out the form_key hidden input value. Then assemble a new HTTP request to fake the submission of the authorization form. Make sure it is a POST request. Your new HTTP request should look like this.
Now, you need to actually confirm the authorization. Simply issue a GET to the /admin/oauth_authorize/confirm URL of your Magento store with the oauth_token as your parameter. When you send this request it will redirect to your oauth_callback from the first step. Now, you can see why we used httpbin as our callback in the first step.
OK. So, we're almost home. The last piece of the puzzle is to use the oauth_token, oauth_secret, and oauth_verifier all together to get a valid and persistent "access token". So, take the oauth_token_secret from the first step, and combine and assemble a new OAuth request like so.
You should get a returned token and secret. These will never expire! You can use them to query products and stuff.
Now, you can assemble your OAuth requests like this. Edit: Note, you must check the "Add params to header" checkbox in order for Magento REST calls to work properly.
I have searched a lot but I can't find the right answer.
I'm working with the Spotify Web API. The access token is only valid for 1 hour. I want to know if it's possible to renew the Spotify access token automatically? And if the answer is yes, how can I do that?
Thanks
Better solution what was find is: Login use Authorization Code Flow
you will receive access_token and refresh_token - and when access_token expired you can get new use refresh_token as describe in '7. Requesting access token from refresh token'
I'm trying to do an HTTPS POST with Postman and get a valid response with the Twitter OAuth 1.0 Sign In flow.
So the Twitter documents say I need to do an HTTPS POST with a specific Authorization header and I'll get a valid response.
Every time I try this, I get a 401 Not Authorized result.
I'm using the sample twitter data from this Twitter documentation page.
Here is a screenshot of what I'm trying...
In this example, the header value is
OAuth oauth_nonce="K7ny27JTpKVsTgdyLdDfmQQWVLERj2zAK5BslRsqyw", oauth_callback="http%3A%2F%2Fmyapp.com%3A3005%2Ftwitter%2Fprocess_callback", oauth_signature_method="HMAC-SHA1", oauth_timestamp="1300228849", oauth_consumer_key="OqEqJeafRSF11jBMStrZz", oauth_signature="Pc%2BMLdv028fxCErFyi8KXFM%2BddU%3D", oauth_version="1.0"
(which is copied directly from that Twitter developer page).
Can anyone tell me what I've done wrong, please?
