(AutoIt) HMRC OAuth2 Access TokenSee more OAuth2 ExamplesDemonstrates how to get an HMRC OAuth2 access token from a desktop (installed) application or script. This example gets an HMRC MTD VAT read/write access token.Note: This example requires Chilkat v10.1.2 or greater.
; To further clarify, see OAuth 2.0 Authorization Flow $oOauth2 = ObjCreate("Chilkat.OAuth2") ; This should be the port in the localhost callback URL for your app. ; Important: Make sure the callback URI in your HMRC developer app ; is exactly "http://localhost:3017/". Don't forget the ending "/" char. ; The callback URL would look like "http://localhost:3017/" if the port number is 3017. ; IMPORTANT: Don't forget to setup your HMRC application to use the Redirect URI "http://localhost:3017/" as shown ; here: Configure Redirect URI for HMRC application $oOauth2.ListenPort = 3017 $oOauth2.AuthorizationEndpoint = "https://test-api.service.hmrc.gov.uk/oauth/authorize" $oOauth2.TokenEndpoint = "https://test-api.service.hmrc.gov.uk/oauth/token" ; Replace with your actual client ID $oOauth2.ClientId = "HMRC-CLIENT-ID" ; The scopes are documented in the HMRC reference documentation for each API. ; This example gets a read/write access token for the HMRC MTD VAT API. $oOauth2.Scope = "read:vat write:vat" ; Begin the OAuth2 Authorization code flow.
