cannot get access token

[zhiyzuo]

Maybe this is a dumb question but I'm totally new to apis and hope to get help.

I am following the instructions in the readme file and when I proceeded to

authentication.authorization_code = '???' authentication.get_access_token()

I got this error:

linkedin.exceptions.LinkedInError: invalid_request: missing required parameters, includes an invalid parameter value, parameter more than once. : Unable to retrieve access token : appId or redirect uri does not match authorization code or authorization code expired

I'm using http://localhost:8000 as the return_url. I pasted the link the python printed and got the authorization_code and use it in the above code but got the error.

Someone help me out please...Really have no idea...

me too! Does the return url really matters? Need I change the http://localhost:8000 to some www.XXX.com ? Help me!

afaik the return url really matters and it has to be registered in linkedIn api settings

[baisk]

I also registered https://localhost:8000 in linkedin api settings.

Now the problem is, I can only use the application for once. I forgot to remember the result of authentication.get_access_token(). I run the program again, input the authorization_code again, and got an error.

I guess the old authorization_code may still be valid, and it prevent another get_access_token() ?

Strange, I am pretty sure that you can request access tokens without limit. It would be impossible to log in from different devices/browsers at the same time with this being forbidden.

[baisk]

Could one user get two access tokens in the same time?

I get "The redirect_uri does not match the registered value" when logging to authentication.authorization_url
