OAuth 2.0 Playground - Get Access Token
This section of the OAuth 2.0 Playground allows developers to exchange an authorization code for an access token. This process is essential in OAuth 2.0’s Authorization Code Flow, which provides secure, delegated access to an application’s resources on behalf of the user.

¶ Step-by-step
-
At first you need to have generated a code using the /authorize route
-
After you have the code in hands, paste it in the code input field, fill the code_verifier if you are using PKCE and click Exchange Authorization Code for Tokens
-
After you send the required code, it’s going to retrieve the following information:
{
"access_token": "IA.XXXX",
"token_type": "Bearer",
"expires_in": 2592000,
"refresh_token": "MA.XXXX",
"scope": "offline_access profile"
}
