Info Resource API Client Credential Oauth2 Bearer OAUTH2_TOKEN

Hello,

what is the logic of the magic string Bearer OAUTH2_TOKEN, because i'm trying to connect to some 3rd party service and is not working, i get an error:

{"data":null,"error":{"statusCode":400,"error":"Bad Request","message":"{\"status\":\"error\",\"message\":\"Unable to decode token\",\"code\":802,\"result\":802}","data":{"status":"error","message":"Unable to decode token","code":802,"result":802},"metadata":{"request":{"url":"**redacted**","method":"GET","body":null,"headers":{"User-Agent":"Retool/2.0 (+https://docs.tryretool.com/docs/apis)","Authorization":"---sanitized---","X-Retool-Forwarded-For":"::ffff:127.0.0.6"}},"headers":{"content-type":["application/json"],"content-length":["77"],"connection":["keep-alive"],"date":["Mon, 14 Jul 2025 12:11:27 GMT"],"server":["**redacted**"],"x-cache":["Error from cloudfront"],status":401,"statusText":"Unauthorized"},"authenticationStatus":"UNAUTHENTICATED"}}

I have an API service to call which is supposed to be base on Oauth2 Client Credentials, I notice that the auth process response content is similar to:

{
"accessToken":"redacted",
"tokenType":"Bearer",
"expiresIn":1440
}

where the access token is returning into a field named accessToken.

I noticed that similar auth process towards okta the content return in a field named access_token and it works.

Not sure if this info is relevant, but they looks like not compliant RFC 6749 - The OAuth 2.0 Authorization Framework with the specs of Oauth2

Hi @dda,

Can you share some screenshots of how you have all your auth setup for the resource that you are connecting to this 3rd party service with?

Is the gist of your question, can you re-use the value in the he magic string Bearer OAUTH2_TOKEN that you got from your SSO flow to auth into your app to auth into a resource?
