How to obtain an authentication code using oAuth2

管理者 MISAKI

I'm trying to verify API access, but I've already run into a problem with OAuth2.
I've already created an API client as a server-side web application (Authorization Code Grant).

I thought I would get an authorization code next, but I tried accessing the following address in my browser, using the sample code in Python on GitHub(https://github.com/Panopto/upload-python-sample/blob/master/simplest/panopto_oauth2.py).

->https://XXX.ap.panopto.com/Panopto/oauth2/connect/authorize?client_id=ec3939e4-6a52-4daf-adfd-b1ee00286777&response_type=code&redirect_uri=http://localhost:9127/redirect&scope=openid api offline_access

The result was an error.

->The Client application is not known or is not authorized.

I thought that the problem was that the redirect_uri was localhost, but even if I specified the url of a temporary http server that could be accessed anonymously from the outside, it didn't change.

I think the first request from the first Client to the Panopto Oauth2 Server failed.

Could you inform me how to get an authentication code using oAuth2?

Hello,

That particular error can be caused by a few different issues, including incorrect client information or an invalid redirect URL. Have you already added "http://localhost:9127/redirect" as an Allowed URL in the API Client configuration in Panopto?

If not, please log into Panopto and go to System → API Clients, find the client you are trying to use then click on its name to edit it. Once it has been edited, please add a new Allowed URL with the URL you'd like to redirect the user to after login ("http://localhost:9127/redirect"), and set the URL Type to "Redirect URL", then click on the "Add URL" button to add that as an allowed redirect URL.

I hope that this helps. Please let me know if you have any other questions, or if this does not work for you.

Thanks,

Kevin

Hi Kevin

The problem was solved by setting the localhost URL as the redirect URL.
Thank you for your reply.
