Troubleshooting OAuth App access token request errors

Incorrect client credentials

If the client_id and or client_secret you pass are incorrect you will receive this error response.

{
  "error": "incorrect_client_credentials",
  "error_description": "The client_id and/or client_secret passed are incorrect.",
  "error_uri": "/apps/managing-oauth-apps/troubleshooting-oauth-app-access-token-request-errors/#incorrect-client-credentials"
}

To solve this error, make sure you have the correct credentials for your OAuthアプリケーション. Double check the client_id and client_secret to make sure they are correct and being passed correctly to GitHub Enterprise.

Redirect URI mismatch

If you provide a redirect_uri that doesn't match what you've registered with your OAuthアプリケーション, you'll receive this error message:

{
  "error": "redirect_uri_mismatch",
  "error_description": "The redirect_uri MUST match the registered callback URL for this application.",
  "error_uri": "/apps/managing-oauth-apps/troubleshooting-authorization-request-errors/#redirect-uri-mismatch2"
}

To correct this error, either provide a redirect_uri that matches what you registered or leave out this parameter to use the default one registered with your application.

Bad verification code

{
  "add_scopes": [
    "repo"
  ],
  "note": "admin script"
}

If the verification code you pass is incorrect, expired, or doesn't match what you received in the first request for authorization you will receive this error.

{
  "error": "bad_verification_code",
  "error_description": "The code passed is incorrect or expired.",
  "error_uri": "/apps/managing-oauth-apps/troubleshooting-oauth-app-access-token-request-errors/#bad-verification-code"
}

To solve this error, start the OAuth authorization process again and get a new code.
