Authentication using Postman
Hi,
I am trying to envoke an APEX class I wrote to retrieve cases using REST in Postman. I am unable to figure out how to authenticate to get a propper session established. I created the class in the sandbox. Any help would be appreciated.

Let us know if this will help you
can you please help me with this problem I am facing?
I tried to follow exact steps for Direct URL in the above link , I get 400 Bad request (The request cannot be fulfilled due to bad syntax).
Below is my POST request.
https://na35.salesforce.com/services/oauth2/token?grant_type=password&client_id=3MVG9szVa2RxsqBZ.1fdpVIoPft1WRAebdZUT*****************RFpa.xkpUlE7VZHvUwUPGxnPAag&client_secret=3271256955005527931&username=**********&password=**************
I used all url params corrcet I double-triple checked. password I used password_security token. No mistake in that.
May I know what can be the reason? This is my personal dev sandbox. What is wrong here? Anybody facing same issue?
For the second method using wizard can you please post the complete url for CallBack URL, Auth URL and Access Token URL? I get the below error when using the wizard method.
When using wizard, I get the below error. Also I do not see the grant type drop down that is shown in your screen shots.
<OAuth>
<error>unsupported_grant_type</error>
<error_description>grant type not supported</error_description>
</OAuth>
My screen looks like below.
Thanks,

Your OAuth authorization end point is wrong.
You need to use the correct Salesforce OAuth endpoint when issuing authentication requests in your application. The primary OAuth endpoints are:
For authorization: https://login.salesforce.com/services/oauth2/authorize
For token requests: https://login.salesforce.com/services/oauth2/token
For revoking OAuth tokens: https://login.salesforce.com/services/oauth2/revoke
