Hi, is there a working POC or example of how to get Postman working to query the REST API endpoints with OAUTH 2 authentication?

It looks like Postman doesnt support the response_type oauth parameter that IFS seems to expect.

When doing an OAUTH token request, it comes back as “not supported”.

I’ve seen a few others with this issue but no answers.

The entire documentation system for the IFS REST API’s is very difficult to navigate and extremely bare on examples and pre-requisites. Seems to assume a lot of pre-req knowledge.

Below blog post explains calling IFS main projections with OAuth in Postman.

A c# demo I did with IFS DB authentication and OAuth can be found here

GitHub - knakit/IFS-OAuth

 

Hope it helps!
