Getting Error message when trying to create oauth access token for Jira

Hey, so I’ve created an app in my developer’s account and received a client id.
Sending those together with a redirect URL to the authorization code endpoint indeed generates an auth_code. Sending the auth code with other credentials (id, secret, redirect uri and grant_type)
return the following error:

{
“error”: “invalid_client”,
“error_description”: “failed to retrieve client”
}
Why is this happening and what can i do to fix it
Thank you
Danny.

@dannyboris I’m running into the same issue. Were you able to figure it out? Thanks

I had the same issue when I send the request from Postman and realized that unnecessary request headers were added implicitly, which was the cause of the said error. Check the hidden headers from the GUI. I hope this could help you guys.
