Tyk Gateway OAuth Key not authorised

Support
1

I am currently working on Tyk Gateway CE. I’ve installed it using tyk-oss-k8s-deployment. Using OAuth 2.0 as reference:

  1. I’ve created an API which should use OAuth for authentication:
    {
    “name”: “oauth-test-api”,
    “slug”: “oauth-test-api”,
    “api_id”: “oauth-test-api”,
    “org_id”: “1”,
    “use_oauth2”: true,
    “oauth_meta”: {
    “allowed_access_types”: [“client_credentials”],
    “allowed_authorize_types”: [“token”],
    “auth_login_redirect”: “http://httpbin.org/”
    },
    “definition”: {
    “location”: “header”,
    “key”: “x-api-version”
    },
    “version_data”: {
    “not_versioned”: true,
    “versions”: {
    “Default”: {
    “name”: “Default”,
    “use_extended_paths”: true
    }
    }
    },
    “proxy”: {
    “listen_path”: “/oauth-test-api/”,
    “target_url”: “http://httpbin.org/”,
    “strip_listen_path”: true
    },
    “active”: true
    }

  2. I’ve created a persistent volume and persistent volume claim where I can update policies.json. Currently policies.json contains the following:

    {
    “oauth_test_policy”: {
    “access_rights”: {
    “oauth-test-api”: {
    “allowed_urls”: [],
    “api_id”: “oauth-test-api”,
    “api_name”: “oauth-test-api”,
    “versions”: [
    “Default”
    ]
    }
    },
    “active”: true,
    “name”: “OAuth Test Policy”,
    “rate”: 100,
    “per”: 1,
    “quota_max”: 10000,
    “quota_renewal_rate”: 3600,
    “tags”: [“Test Policy”]
    }
    }

  3. Then, I hit /oauth-test-api/oauth/token to retrieve the token

  4. Once I got the token, I added it as bearer for my API call.

    However, I’m receiving this error:
    {
    “error”: “Key not authorised”
    }

Can you please tell me if I missed or misconfigured anything ?

Thanks in advance.

Managed to get this working by adding org_id in the policy. However, now I’m getting another issue:
{
“error”: “There was a problem proxying the request”
}

time=“Mar 01 22:23:36” level=error msg=“http: proxy error: dial tcp: lookup httpbin.org: Temporary failure in name resolution” api_id=oauth-test-api api_name=oauth-test-api mw=ReverseProxy org_id=sku prefix=proxy server_name=httpbin.org user_id=“****8289” user_ip=172.17.0.1 user_name=

@mcabrera were you following the documentation on our website? If so, was it missing information?

Hi @zaid . Yes, I was following the documentation mentioned in my initial post. I think it would help a lot if we can see documentation of each field and how it relates to each component. Thanks!
