I'm trying to pull a list of contacts from a google account. But Google returns a 401.
The url used for requesting an authorization code:
String codeUrl = 'https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth' + '?'
+ 'client_id=' + EncodingUtil.urlEncode(CLIENT_ID, 'UTF-8')
+ '&redirect_uri=' + EncodingUtil.urlEncode(MY_URL, 'UTF-8')
+ '&scope=' + EncodingUtil.urlEncode('https://www.google.com/m8/feeds/', 'UTF-8')
+ '&access_type=' + 'offline'
+ '&response_type=' + EncodingUtil.urlEncode('code', 'UTF-8')
+ '&approval_prompt=' + EncodingUtil.urlEncode('force', 'UTF-8');
Exchanging the returned authorization code for an access token (and refresh token):
String params = 'code=' + EncodingUtil.urlEncode(authCode, 'UTF-8')
+ '&client_id=' + EncodingUtil.urlEncode(CLIENT_ID, 'UTF-8')
+ '&client_secret=' + EncodingUtil.urlEncode(CLIENT_SECRET, 'UTF-8')
+ '&redirect_uri=' + EncodingUtil.urlEncode(MY_URL, 'UTF-8')
+ '&grant_type=' + EncodingUtil.urlEncode('authorization_code', 'UTF-8');
Http con = new Http();
Httprequest req = new Httprequest();
req.setEndpoint('https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/token');
req.setHeader('Content-Type', 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded');
req.setBody(params);
req.setMethod('POST');
Httpresponse reply = con.send(req);
Which returns a JSON array with what looks like a valid access token:
{
"access_token" : "{access_token}",
"token_type" : "Bearer",
"expires_in" : 3600,
"refresh_token" : "{refresh_token}"
}
However when I try and use the access token (either in code or curl) Google returns a 401:
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer {access_token}" https://www.google.com/m8/feeds/contacts/default/full/
Incidentally the same curl command but with an access token acquired via https://code.google.com/oauthplayground/ works. Which leads me to believe there is something wrong with the exchanging authorization code for access token request as the returned access token does not work.
I should add this is all within the expires_in time frame so its not that the access_token has expired
