400 Bad Request on access token refresh #677

Closed l3d00m closed 7 years ago

l3d00m commented 7 years ago

Issue Description

If I try to refresh the access token using:

reddit_auth = praw.Reddit(user_agent="Twitter X-Poster by l3d00m")
reddit_auth.set_oauth_app_info(client_id="eoAG6V7plEDeAA", client_secret=api_keys.reddit_client_secret,
                               redirect_uri="http://127.0.0.1")
reddit_auth.refresh_access_information(api_keys.reddit_client_refresh)

I get an 400 Bad Request. Stacktrace:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Program Files (x86)\Python35-32\lib\site-packages\praw\internal.py", line 213, in _raise_response_exceptions

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

The same code worked a month ago like a charm, I have no idea why this is happening. (I only generated a new access token using this method). Thanks for your help!

Nevermind, I'm an idot. Sorry for the confusion. I forgot to do:

 access_information = r.get_access_information('code')
