Description

I have been trying accessing to obtain access token for Gitea , I have invoked "/login/oauth/access_token" as post API with
request body as below
{
"grant_type": "authorization_code",
"code": "",
"redirect_uri": "http://localhost:8080/js/qa/oauth2.jsp",
"client_id": "",
"client_secret",""
}

Possible options tried for grant_type is "authorization_code" & "refresh_token" with valid details for code , client_id & client_secret.

for all invocations i get

"
{
"error": "unsupported_grant_type",
"error_description": "Only refresh_token or authorization_code grant type is supported"
}
"
...
