Quick and visual walkthrough for our OAuth implementation

1. Visual Walkthrough of
Eventbrite’s OAuth implementation

2. 1.) Include a ‘Connect with Eventbrite’ button
https://www.eventbrite.com/oauth/authorize?response_type=code&client_id=[YOUR_CLIENT_KEY]
2.) Behind the button, add this URL:

3. 3.) When a user clicks on the button, the user will be redirected to
Eventbrite to ‘Allow’ or ‘Deny’ access to the 3rd party application.

4. 4.) Once a user clicks ‘Allow’, Eventbrite will redirect the user to the
application’s associated redirect URL (find or set your applications
redirect URL here: http://eventbrite.com/myaccount/apps ).
5.) There will be a “code” query parameter on the end of the redirect
URL representing an access code
6.) You must exchange this code (and your client secret) for an
Access Token by making a post request to the following URL:
https://www.eventbrite.com/oauth/token
Important: This POST must contain the following urlencoded data
along with a “Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded“
header
FINISHED! The subsequent “POST“ will contain the user’s
access_token.
code=THE_USERS_AUTH_CODE&client_secret=YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET&client_id=YOU
R_API_KEY&grant_type=authorization_code
