Authorisation Failing - Short Access Code
Hey guys, I am trying to re-authenticate an existing client with our App however when we do the request to https://secure.myob.com/oauth2/account/authorize?client_id=[YOUR API KEY]&redirect_uri=...
Forum Discussion
Hi The_Doc , we are experiencing exactly the same issue. I sent a support request to the API support team this morning.
Our app is configured to use the latest IE or Edge, whatever is found, so I doubt that the IE version on our side is the problem.
PS. Same as the OP here, I noticed that the access code is now much shorter and starts "ory_...".
A comment was made by MYOB staff last week as follows: "At this stage we are not sure what actually caused this issue, but identity services are going through some changes which may have caused this issue. We will find out. "
I suspect that MYOB have taken on a third-party identity services product, which explains the change of behaviour. I found www.ory.sh, which appears to provide this kind of service.
Perhaps MYOB could confirm this, and explain how we should proceed now?
Hi Mike
Nice to know I am not the only one going slowly mad - actually this was what was happening with the initial problem it all crashed 2 weeks ago - the refresh tripped.
Once you have your Authorisation Code - which has an expiry of 7 days it comes with an Access token and a Refresh - the Access token worked and gave 20 minutes access but the Refresh gave the token "ory........ scope offline"
However, after being offline for 3 days I spotted by chance that just asking for a new Authorisation Code got me an Access Code and I was able to jury rig a manual continuation.
Then MYOB rolled out a fix Tues night 2 weeks ago - supposedly fixing everything - sure did! Right and proper - I was fully dead.
But NOW the Authorisation Code started with "ory...." and I have been locked out despite every effort to find a soln around.
Tana in tech kept bouncing Antview2 at me - though I said it likely not the problem but a symptom - I loaded that this morning just to be absolutely sure this was not the problem.
I have posted a new reply to Tana to finally say - THIS IS NOT OUR PROBLEM!
I will spin up a VB.NET program this weekend - if I can get my head down - I was not competent in VB.NET or VC#.Net 10 years ago when I built my code - I am now in both so I think I can get a VB.NET up and running in short hop this weekend JUST to confirm "it aint our problem".
Pretty sure you will already have done that, but I need to tell Tana - tried everything.
Also, need a fallback collection of programs to test out problems for the future - pretty sure this is going to be on-going.

Hi Mike_James
Strangely, apparently this code is correct and works - hmm - I manually processed it through my old code and got back a legit Access_token and Refresh_token
The method that gets this from the returned payload is
Dim sourcestr as string
sourcestr = me.Antview2.source
Assume http://desktop is your redirect is
http://desktop/?code=oryac.... ..... &scope=CompanyFile.....
This is your Access Code - don't decrypt - use this as per normal to get your Access_token & Refresh_token per normal things should work.
I hope - ......
