Issue with getting the access token

[technofriends]

Linkedin's developer documentation states that the URl should have the following structure when making a request for the access https://www.linkedin.com/uas/oauth2/accessToken?grant_type=authorization_code &code=AUTHORIZATION_CODE &redirect_uri=YOUR_REDIRECT_URI &client_id=YOUR_API_KEY &client_secret=YOUR_SECRET_KEY

Therefore, should the get_access_token() not be rewritten as:

def get_access_token(self, timeout=60):
    assert self.authorization_code, 'You must first get the authorization code'
    qd = {'grant_type': 'authorization_code',
          'code': self.authorization_code,
          'redirect_uri': self.redirect_uri,
          'client_id': self.key,
          'client_secret': self.secret}
    qsl = ['%s=%s' % (urllib.quote(k), urllib.quote(v)) for k, v in qd.items()]
    fullURL = '%s?%s' % (self.ACCESS_TOKEN_URL, '&'.join(qsl))

    response = requests.post(fullURL, timeout=timeout)
    raise_for_error(response)
    response = response.json()
    self.token = AccessToken(response['access_token'], response['expires_in'])
    return self.token

Hi,

What is the correct code that you suggest?

Any luck with this? Facing similar issue.

yes based on linkedin redirect url. use the code that passed in the url from request and set authentication_code

[wuwenhuang]

based on Django linkedin_authorization_code = request.GET['code'] linkedin.LinkedInAuthentication("auth_key", "auth_secret", "redirect_url") linkedin_auth.authorization_code = linkedin_authorization_code
