Hello, 

I am trying to do a POST call to Remedyforce and experiencing the following error. I was able to generate access token using OAUTH mechanism but for the subsequent APIs, getting the following error. Please advise.

'errorCode': 'NOT_FOUND', 'message': 'The requested resource does not exist'

URL using: https://<redacted>/services/data/v46.0/sobjects/BMCServiceDesk__Incident__c/

I am following the guidelines from the Chatter guide and somehow I can't get the OAuth to work. 

 

It's not working from Java or curl.   Here is what I am doing:

 

mike$ curl --form client_id=3MVG9yZ.WNe6bxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxu5AjB4oT9kxi8SEhY --form client_secret=26542xxxxxxxxxxx78  --form grant_type=password --form username=xxxxxxxx@gmail.com --form password=xxxxxxx https://na11.salesforce.com/services/oauth2/token

 

What I am getting is:

{"error":"invalid_grant","error_description":"authentication failure - Invalid Password"}

 

I double checked and I am getting into na11 with the right password.  Is there anything else I need to do?

 

Here are the settings in my remote access:

 



Application

chatter



Callback URL

https://na11.salesforce.com/ConnectTest/oauth/_callback /// temp one



No user approval required for users in this organization

 

While the API docs have a lot of great examples using cURL, I don't see an example of how to actually obtain the access token. I tried the following with no joy:

 

 

curl grant_type=authorization_code \
  client_id=MY-CONSUMER-KEY \
  client_secret=MY-CONSUMER-SECRET \
  https://na5.salesforce.com/services/oath2/token

 

 

Thanks
