Bitbucket OAuth2 using Node.js

Question

I want to have a capability in my application that allows users to Authorize Bitbucket. I have followed https://confluence.atlassian.com/bitbucket/oauth-on-bitbucket-cloud-238027431.html.

The following works and brings the Bitbucket authorization screen as expected: https://bitbucket.org/site/oauth2/authorize?client_id={client_id}&response_type=code

However, this part emits an error about invalid Grant.

$ curl -X POST -u "client_id:secret" \ https://bitbucket.org/site/oauth2/access_token \ -d grant_type=authorization_code -d code={code}

I am using request module in Node.js and using the code as follows:

request.post( 'https://bitbucket.org/site/oauth2/access_token', { json: { client_id: config.get('app.bitbucket_client_id'), client_secret: config.get('app.bitbucket_client_secret'), code: req.query.code, grant_type: "authorization_code" } }, function (error, response, body) { // Do something here } }

{"result":{"error_description":"Unsupported grant type: None","error":"invalid_grant"}}

Please advice!

isn't the error saying u haven't included the grant_type parameter in your request JSON? — Rick Lee

What should it be? If I add grant_type: "authorization_code" it complains... {"result":{"error_description":"Unsupported grant type: None","error":"invalid_grant"}} — Rahul Soni

@RickLee I tried adding the grant_type, but the issue persists. — Rahul Soni

Found the answer to my question. Basically, Bitbucket expects data to be sent in body directly instead of JSON. Changing from json to form in the code above fixed it for me.
