404 Error Retrieving Token

I've registered a new application and am setting up the auth.  The documentation says to retrieve the token from "https://cloudsso.cisco.com/as/token.oauth2".  The example given in the documentation is below:

curl -s -k -H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" -X POST -d "client_id=<OAuth-Client-ID>" -d "client_secret=<OAuth-Client-Secret>" -d "grant_type=client_credentials" https://cloudsso.cisco.com/as/token.oauth2

When attempting this with curl (using our own client ID and client secret) to the above URL, we get a 404 page not found error.  Is this caused by an error in the token retrieval, or is the page actually missing?  Is there a different/new URL we should use?

Thank you!

Robert, your url that you are using is correct. Have you tried to retrieve the token using postman? Postman can auto generate a curl request based on getting the access token.

Inside postman you can do a post request with the following url and input your client id and secret.

https://cloudsso.cisco.com/as/token.oauth2?grant_type=client_credentials&client_id=yourclientid&client_secret=yourclientsecret

You can also do a get request inside of postman using a url of an advisory and use Oauth 2 as the authentication as well.

Thanks,

Looks like the issue was caused by having the app set to "authorization code", instead of "client credentials".  It's not the error I would have expected but changing to client credentials corrected the issue.
