Hello, As stated in the topic, I am trying to get the access token that will allow me to manipulate the Backstage API but when trying the Password Credentials flow I am receiving the error "False". Here is the function to fetch the token: const credentials = { this is where my credentials are registered } function fetchTaboolaAccessToken() { const options = {}; options.method = 'post'; options.headers = { 'Content-Type': '"application/x-www-form-urlencoded"' }; options.body = { client_id: credentials.client_id, client_secret: credentials.client_secret, username: credentials.username, password: credentials.password, grant_type: 'password' }; const result = fetchUrl('https://backstage.taboola.com/backstage/oauth/token', options) console.log("Result", result); } Can someone tell me what is wrong in my function for this error to be logged ?

Has anyone tried this and can provide information and recommendations? Which R package did you use? How did you go about it? I tried the httr package and used the code below: url = 'https://ads.taboola.com//backstage/api/1.0/[account_id]/campaigns/' r <- GET(url = 'https://ads.taboola.com//backstage/oauth/token', config = list(username, password, type = "basic"))) data <- r$content The account ID was not alphabetical, it was numerical. and the username and password are for the ad campaigns account. I did not get any media fields, even though the response showed 200 - which confirmed some sort of connection was made.

I’m hoping someone can help with a stumbling block I’m facing with our auth flow. I’m trying to use the Authorisation Code method outlined in the api docs (https://developers.taboola.com/backstage-api/reference#authorization-code) as follows: This flow is similar to Implicit Grant (above), but involves an additional step: User clicks on Connect within your App. Your App redirects the user to a Taboola login page: [authentication_domain]/authentication/oauth/authorize/?client_id=[client_id]&redirect_uri=[redirect-uri]&response_type=code Note: set authentication_domain = 'https://authentication.taboola.com’ I’ve built the Taboola login url as outlined above using our client id and desired redirect however when I test the URL and subsequent login process there is no redirect back to our app, instead the user is taken to this page within Taboola that asks whether I want to go to backstage or newsroom, both of which keep the user in Taboola. Anyone know why I can’t redirect back out to our app to complete the authors flow?

Hi! Yesterday starting from 7PM GMT+1 we faced API authorization problems. We work with Ubuntu 16.04, which is located on Amazon. The problem is when we try to get the token we get the "401" response. Sreenshot: https://prnt.sc/snzqlc The authorization code is absolutely the same on the working PC, and everything works correctly.
