Hi, I can successfully generate a refresh token using postman but I doesn’t work using Nodered. any idea’s?

I am using the following API: <span style=”color: #505050; font-family: OpenSans, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; white-space: pre-wrap;”>https://partners-login.eliotbylegrand.com/token using the following body params: client_id, client_secret, grant_type and refresh_token.</span>

When I use it in Post man, I got an 200 OK, using nodered, I get<span class=”red-ui-debug-msg-object-key” style=”font-family: Menlo, Consolas, ‘DejaVu Sans Mono’, Courier, monospace; font-size: 13px; color: #792e90;”>error</span><span style=”background-color: #efefef; font-family: Menlo, Consolas, ‘DejaVu Sans Mono’, Courier, monospace; font-size: 13px;”>:</span><span style=”background-color: #efefef; font-family: Menlo, Consolas, ‘DejaVu Sans Mono’, Courier, monospace; font-size: 13px;”> </span><span class=”red-ui-debug-msg-object-value” style=”font-family: Menlo, Consolas, ‘DejaVu Sans Mono’, Courier, monospace; font-size: 13px;”><span class=”red-ui-debug-msg-type-string red-ui-debug-msg-object-header” style=”color: #b72828; white-space: pre-wrap;”>”server_error”</span></span>

<div>Can’t find the difference. Any help would be appreciated. i uploaded an image of the debug window and copied the flow below:</div>

Hi Peter,

I don’t know much about NodeRed, but this error looks like a Content-Type one for the Body (it must be “form-data”)

Here is an example of what I get for this in Body for a NodeJS request :

Hoping it will help you to solve this issue,

Have a good day,
