Authenticating via Postman

Posted by MehulP on in Standard Integration Questions

Hello, 

I am trying to connect to the iCIMS API to get an auth token via Postman. My setup looks like this. The client_id and client_secret are what was provided by our contractor but I suspect both could be incorrect as generally those are GUIDs. As you can see from the screenshot, I receive a 401 - Unauthorized, which checks out in this situation. Any help would be appreciated. 

Thanks, 

Mehul

Seems the screenshot gets removed by security. Here is the Postman setup:

POST - https://login.icims.com/oauth/token

Body (url-form-encoded)

client_id -15186

client_secret - xxxxxxxxxxxxx

audience - https://icims.api.com/v1/

grant_type - client_credentials

Headers:

Content-Type - application/x-www-form-urlencoded

I'm nearly certain the client_id is not correct. I would ask for the client_id and client_secret to be confirmed.
