"Insufficient authorization" when using OAuth #4

Open loosemoose613 opened 9 years ago

loosemoose613 commented 9 years ago

I added a new account, used Google email as username, left the password blank, which opens up the OAuth "dance," then I paste in the success url from Pushbullet. After doing this, the account won't login and is disabled with the message: "Insufficient authorization."

Unfortunately the OAuth login doesn't give enough privileges to access "everything" from Pushbullet. For now just follow the readme at https://github.com/EionRobb/pidgin-pushbullet#pushbullet-plugin-for-pidgin and use your Access Token from https://www.pushbullet.com/#settings/account as your password.

I'll leave this issue open to keep track of the problem though :)

I see, thanks a bunch for the reply. I'm guessing OAuth maybe doesn't fully support SMS/MMS, which unfortunately is really the only thing I use Pushbullet for.

Sort of. Using OAuth instead of the access token doesn't let us know what mobile devices are connected to your account to be able to fetch the SMS from
