While requesting for access token I am getting 403 status App Type - OAuth endpoint- [https://zoom.us/oauth/token](https://zoom.us/oauth/token) params- {‘grant\_type’: ‘authorization\_code’, ‘code’: ‘code getting from the 1 step’, ‘redirect\_url’: ‘[REDACTED]’} headers- {‘Authorization’: 'Basic encoded\_token ', ‘Content-type’: ‘application/json’} **Additional context** I am following all the steps of the OAuth document. But no success getting 403 every time. ---

Hey @angel.webinars, Thank you for reaching out to the Zoom Developer Forum. First, please make sure that you’ve added your `redirect_uri` [on your app settings page and whitelisted that URL](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/guides/build/oauth-app#app-credentials). ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/zoomdeveloper/original/3X/9/4/94670f1197ddcc6bc7bbd5eadb16ea8c7ede585d.png) Let me know if that helps. Thanks, Max ---

hi Max, Thanks for your Reply. I had added my redirect uri in both places ---

Hey @angel.webinars, Make sure that you are setting `grant_type`, `code` and `redirect_uri` as [query parameters](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/guides/auth/oauth#step-2-request-access-token) instead of in a JSON object: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/zoomdeveloper/original/3X/6/5/65fcbb471123d724642876569f119cb44f0b8196.png) > [@angel.webinars](#): > > ‘redirect\_url’ Here you’re using redirect\_url (ending with an L) whereas the parameter is redirect\_uri (ending with an i). I just want to make sure that’s known in case that’s causing any issues. Also, please make sure that URL is accessible publicly and working as expected. When I navigate to that page, I see an error. If that doesn’t help, please send an email to [developersupport@zoom.us](mailto:developersupport@zoom.us) with a link to this thread. In that email, please include the full request that you’re making - including the request body as well as the response that you’re seeing. Thanks, Max ---

Yes, that was the issue… Thanks ---
