how to get an access token from wunderlist using OAuth2

1.4k views Asked by At

How do you get an access token from the wunderlist api using oauth?

The wunderlist documentation says:

  1. Wunderlist redirects back to your site
    If the user accepts your request, Wunderlist will redirect to your redirect_uri with a temporary code in a code parameter as well as the state you provided in the previous step in a state parameter. If the states don't match, the request has been created by a third party and the process should be aborted.

    Exchange code for an access token: POST https://www.wunderlist.com/oauth/access_token


I do not understand

Exchanging the code for an access_token is done by executing an HTTP POST message to the token endpoint, in your case to https://www.wunderlist.com/oauth/access_token, with JSON data as specified in: https://developer.wunderlist.com/documentation/concepts/authorization. Using cURL it would look like:

curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{ "code":"<CODE>", "client_id": "<CLIENT_ID>", "client_secret": "<CLIENT_SECRET>"}' https://www.wunderlist.com/oauth/access_token
