Salesforce - unsupported_grant_type: grant type not supported


I have an issue when connecting to my Salesforce account using JSforce and OAuth2 in my NestJS (Typescript) application.

Here is my login code:

@Get('salesforce/login/:userId')
  async login(@Req() req, @Res() res, @Param('userId') userId) {
    const user = await this.userService.findById(userId);
    const oauth2 = new OAuth2({
      loginUrl: user.salesforceOauthInformation.loginUrl,
      clientId: user.salesforceOauthInformation.clientId,
      clientSecret: user.salesforceOauthInformation.clientSecret,
      redirectUri: user.configService.salesforceRedirectUri,
    });
    res.redirect(
      oauth2.getAuthorizationUrl({
        scope: 'api full id web refresh_token',
        state: user.id,
      }),
    );
  }

Here is my callback code:

@Get('salesforce/callback')
  async callback(@Query('code') code: string, @Query('state') state: string) {
    const user = await this.userService.findById(state);
    const oauth2 = new OAuth2({
      loginUrl: user.salesforceOauthInformation.loginUrl,
      clientId: user.salesforceOauthInformation.clientId,
      clientSecret: user.salesforceOauthInformation.clientSecret,
      redirectUri: 'http://localhost:4000/crm/auth/salesforce/callback',
    });
    const connection = new Connection({
      oauth2,
    });
    try {
      await connection.authorize(code);
      await this.userService.update(user.id, {
        salesforceOauthInformation: {
          loginUrl: connection.oauth2.loginUrl,
          clientId: connection.oauth2.clientId,
          clientSecret: connection.oauth2.clientSecret,
          accessToken: connection.accessToken,
          refreshToken: connection.refreshToken,
        },
      });
    } catch (e) {
      this.logger.error(e);
    }
  }

Here is the error throwing on await connection.authorize(code);:

error: 17:44:50.228+01:00 [CrmService] unsupported_grant_type: grant type not supported

Solution

  • The error is that I was setting my loginUrl as

    https://my-company.lightning.force.com
    

    But the loginUrl must be set as my.salesforce.com domain instead of lightning.force.com

    https://my-company.my.salesforce.com
