I'm attempting to use the Trimble Connect web connection, but I am receiving an authentication error. I have a Trimble Connect account and have received my consumer key and consumer secret for authentication, but I'm not able to get it to work.

I've reviewed the Trimble Connect API documentation, but I am still relatively new to working with API's, and this API requires multiple steps, so I'm having trouble. Does anybody have examples of authenticating with Trimble Connect with FME? I could sure use some assistance.

 

I downloaded the provided collection and environment in PostMan and was able to connect, but no luck getting this to work in FME.

I wanted to circle back and answer this question I posted awhile back with the solution I found.

 

Trimble Connect now only allows the Oauth 2.0 Authorization code grant for security concerns.

Trimble Documentation Link

 

 

Create a new Oauth2.0 web connection in FME.

Enter Client Id, Client Secret and Redirect Uri that was used during sign up of the Trimble Identity.

 

Authorization Parameters

URL: https://identity.trimble.com/authorize?scope=openid&response_type=code

 

Retrieve Token Parameters

URL: https://identity.trimble.com/token?tenantDomain=trimble.com

 

Refresh Token Parameters

URL: https://identity.trimble.com/token

Request Format: client_id=[CLIENT_ID]&client_secret=[CLIENT_SECRET]&refresh_token=[REFRESH_TOKEN]&response_type=refresh_token&grant_type=refresh_token&tenantDomain=trimble.com

 

Test the connection and login with your credentials.
