Using OAuth 2.0 for Devices :Some requested scopes were invalid

Question

After you have the client ID and client secret, you send an HTTP POST to the OAuth 2.0 device endpoint at https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/device/code with your client_id and a list of scopes. Unlike the other OAuth 2.0 flows, response_type and redirect_uri are not needed in the device flow. The following is an example request for a user code:

POST /o/oauth2/device/code HTTP/1.1 Host: accounts.google.com Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded

client_id=812741506391-h38jh0j4fv0ce1krdkiq0hfvt6n5amrf.apps.googleusercontent.com& scope=email%20profile

I have tried but it results all time:

{ "error" : "invalid_scope", "error_description" : "Some requested scopes were invalid. {invalid=[[email protected]]}", "error_uri" : "http://code.google.com/apis/accounts/docs/OAuth2.html" }

can anyone solve this..where i am wrong please

Answer 1

You can start from here, this should help get you the device code

curl -d "client_id=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.apps.googleusercontent.com&scope=email profile" https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/device/code
