POST with Credentials in the Body

The final option is to place all the required information in the body of a POST request. This will look similar to the previous option but instead of an Authorization header you put the credentials in as additional form elements. A request using the user name / password combination would look like this:

POST /oauth2/v2/token HTTP/1.1
Host: oauth2.strikeiron.com
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
grant_type=client_credentials
client_id=user@example.com
client_secret=auth123

Similarly, using the user name / license key combination would look something like this:

POST /oauth2/v2/token HTTP/1.1
Host: oauth2.strikeiron.com
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
grant_type=client_credentials
client_id=user@example.com
client_secret=6BC4029C9A94FBC5581F
