Online documentation

In our online documentation, the curl command examples follow OSX/Linux/Unix command syntax.

If you are using Windows Command shell or PowerShell, there are a few notable differences in using these curl snippets.

• Windows does not support single quotes in Command shell, nor does it support double quotes inside of double quotes. Each example must be edited:

  • Change single quotes to double quotes

  • If you need a double quote inside a double quote, escape the second set of double quotes, for instance: "{\"emailAddress\":\"user@example.com\"}"

• Line continuation backslashes are used for readability and are not necessary. These backslashes may be deleted. Or, replace the backslash with a ^ in Command shell or ` in PowerShell.

curl --request POST
  --url '/sandbox/token' --user {{client_id}}:{{client_secret}}
  --header 'accept: application/json'
  --header 'content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded'
  --data grant_type=authorization_code
  --data redirect_uri=/flow/callback
  --data code=<code> | jq

# | jq is optional
