OAuth Redirect URL

[BarryCarlyon]

I already did that man! Infact, that was the first thing I tried before someone from the Discord gave me the token link. Here is my exact code word for word in python

"import requests

params = (
(‘client_id’, ‘izbr3e0woto5nlw13belle04zsrtvf’),
(‘redirect_uri’, ‘http://localhost:3030’),
)

response = requests.get(‘https://id.twitch.tv/oauth2/authorize’, params=params)
"

The problem is I don’t get any reply back run it. It just runs, then goes to the next line without giving me anything. THAT IS WHY I tried the oauth token link which I thought would be used to give myself a token if I put in the localhost:3000 as my redirect link for my app.

Well theres your problem.

You tried to GET the twitch login page, instead of redirecting the user to the login page.

As covered here, in your original post where I also touched on Discord

It’s the same as everywhere else that implements oAuth, and you need three bits of information, two URL’s and what scopes exist…

For “standard” oAuth aka “OAuth Authorization Code Flow”

• send user to $service aka loginRedirectURL https://id.twitch.tv/oauth2/authorize
• user accepts (or rejects) app connection
• user is sent to your redirectURI with a code https://<your registered redirect URI>/?code=<authorization code>
• you exchange the code for a token, aka tokenExchangeURL https://id.twitch.tv/oauth2/token
