LinkedIn OAuth2 bad request.

[guyf]

I have a working django LinkedIn OAuth1 setup. I have tried to switch to OAuth2 by updating all my settings from SOCIAL_AUTH_LINKEDIN_* to SOCIAL_AUTH_LINKEDIN_OAUTH2_* and switching the backend to social.backends.linkedin.LinkedinOAuth2

I get an AuthCancelled Exception. Triggered I think by by HTTPError('400 Client Error: Bad Request',)

The inbound URL looks like:

http://bbm-dev.local:8000/complete/linkedin-oauth2/?redirect_state=c230xy4n04oSAG9x3xwcbEUgudTewZA1&code=AQShEKzGzz2n8lcfl7n9IxLwzWKs2R2g3kwFl5skR04z6Bk_LxYFQF3nrKSalI7Jk3mRGbFZAs60Csd2SW9yNwKZmPY39Iz7fx-E7T_2d2JIRvI7A-c&state=c230xy4n04oSAG9x3xwcbEUgudTewZA1

Have I missed anything in my setup changes? Any other ideas? Thanks.

Actually switching the settings and the backend name should be enough, unless LinkedIn decided to break that migration option. Any luck on your end?

funny enough the twitter dev discussion board had the answer for me...the callback URL in your linkedin app needs to be set -- even though it explicitly says oath1:

this is what I did:

@dblado, thanks for the clarification, I've added a reference in the docs regarding that.

@omab What exactly do we need to specify in the redirect uri in the django app as well as the linkedin app?
My current django app config is:
SOCIAL_AUTH_LINKEDIN_OAUTH2_KEY = 'xxxxxxxxxx'
SOCIAL_AUTH_LINKEDIN_OAUTH2_SECRET = 'xxxxxxx'

Add email to requested authorizations.

SOCIAL_AUTH_LINKEDIN_OAUTH2_SCOPE = [
'r_basicprofile', 'r_emailaddress', 'rw_company_admin', 'w_share']

SOCIAL_AUTH_LOGIN_REDIRECT_URL = '/home/'
SOCIAL_AUTH_LOGIN_URL = '/'

Am I missing something in my config file, and exactly what should be the redirect uri in cas of OAuth2?
