I have started digging into Jawbone's UP API today and everything seems to go fine throughout the authentication process. The problem is that, once I get an access token back, it's always the same token, it doesn't work in any of my requests, and I can't change it with the refresh_token endpoint.
oAuth setup:
$url_params = array(
'response_type' => 'code',
'client_id' => CLIENT_ID,
'scope' => array('basic_read', 'extended_read', 'move_read'),
'redirect_uri' => 'https://my-site.com/up_auth.php',
);
These are the parameters attached to the https://jawbone.com/auth/oauth2/auth
URL and I get sent to Jawbone and prompted as expected. When I accept the authorization I get kicked back to my-site.com as expected with the code in the URL. I then use the code like so
$params = array(
'client_id' => CLIENT_ID,
'client_secret' => APP_SECRET,
'grant_type' => 'authorization_code',
'code' => $code,
);
And attach those parameters to https://jawbone.com/auth/oauth2/token
and finally get kicked back to my server with something similar to:
{
"access_token": "REALLY_LONG_STRING",
"token_type": "Bearer",
"expires_in": 31536000,
"refresh_token": "ANOTHER_REALLY_LONG_STRING"
}
When I use access_token
to try and get a response like this
$headers = array(
'Host: my-site.rhcloud.com',
'Connection: Keep-Alive',
'Accept: application/json',
"Authorization: Bearer {$_REQUEST['access_token']}",
);
$ch = curl_init('https://jawbone.com/nudge/api/v.1.1/users/@me/moves');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
$o = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
var_dump($o);
from the API, this is the response every time:
{
"meta": {
"code": 401,
"error_detail": "You must be logged in to perform that action",
"error_type": "authentication_error",
"message": "Unauthorized"
},
"data": {
}
}
The token never changes, even in a private browsing session, and even if I successfully refresh using the provided refresh_token
and the proper API call - the call succeeds, but Jawbone gives me back the same token. If I test the same flow through the Jawbone API Console, the Bearer token in the request headers is different from the one I get here. Note that I get the same access_token when I attempt the same process with my wife's Jawbone credentials as well.
Finally figured out what was going on and heard back from Jawbone about it. It turns out that they have collisions on the backend if you use the same auth with two different clients.
For anyone else that runs into this problem, don't use the same login in two different contexts simultaneously as it will reset auths in weird ways.
In our case, we have test user accounts that are often shared between devs since it is sometimes hard to get real data unless you have the actual device. This was causing 'duplicate' logins that made Jawbone code freak out.
We got confirmation from a Jawbone dev who ran into the same problem when developing an internal app.....
