Hello!
I am trying to connect to a few different QuickBooks online accounts through their API (intuit.developer). I have found this SO post resourceful: r - Quickbooks Online API Oauth2.0 using httr - Stack Overflow
When I run this code:
library(httr)
library(httpuv)
library(curl)
library(jsonlite)
library(base64enc)
endPoint <- oauth_endpoint(
request = NULL,
authorize = "https://appcenter.intuit.com/connect/oauth2",
access = "https://oauth.platform.intuit.com/oauth2/v1/tokens/bearer"
)
App <- oauth_app(
"QBOR Dev",
key = my_key,
secret = my_secret,
redirect_uri = "https://developer.intuit.com/v2/OAuth2Playground/RedirectUrl"
)
QBOtoken <- oauth2.0_token(
endpoint = endPoint,
app = App,
scope = "com.intuit.quickbooks.accounting",
type = "code",
cache = TRUE
)
This opens a browser with a login. I sign in and get prompted to select a company and a client. I select my company and client to authorize them with the app.
View after signing in:
When I get to the following page (in this case its where my redirect uri points me to) I can see the authorization code on the intuit developer playground, however, in my RStudio session the console shows:
> QBOtoken <- oauth2.0_token(
+ endpoint = endPoint,
+ app = App,
+ scope = "com.intuit.quickbooks.accounting",
+ type = "code",
+ cache = TRUE
+ )
Waiting for authentication in browser...
Press Esc/Ctrl + C to abort
I am fairly new to oath 2.0 and I am unsure of what parameters to tune to get this to work. In the SO post their redirect URI goes to a localhost (The OP shows they get a "complete" message as well), I use the redirect URI the app shows me to use online. I have also tested using google.com in this parameter and it does open google up with the authorization code and other parameters in the URL. I would like to programmatically get this code stored in a variable Vs copying and pasting it.
I appreciate any help and/or direction!
Thanks,
Kyle
