Hi,

Trying to get the access token so I can call SKY APIs.

Tried using the guide on the blackbaud website but had a lot of difficulties with that. I tried using the POSTMAN website recommended by Blackbaud's youtube channel as an alternative method. I'm getting this error.

Error: CORS request rejected: https://oauth2.sky.blackbaud.com/token

In the postman page (screenshot) I filled in the client id, client secret -as it was in my application in Blackbaud/RE - and the authorization and access token URLs. In my application in Blakcbaud/RE- I used the "Callback URL" in POSTMAN (in the screenhsot)

Please could I have some help.

Thanks

    In your developer.blackbaud.com application, did you add postman's redirect?

    hi there, I am looking to setup my postman with the request, do we have any setup I can follow along? I am pretty new with BB.

    thanks.
