When doing the authorization flow (step 2 in the official documentation), I get a basic authorization prompt. Despite supplying the correct username and password, I get a 401 Unauthorized response. I tried with both 2FA enabled and disabled.

Hi! You shouldn't be getting that form at all. You probably mistyped one of the fields of the authorization URL.
Would you mind sharing it (hiding your Client ID)?

@ZeroCrystal I figured out the problem. The redirect_uri parameter did not match what I had configured for this API client. Thanks for the help anyway!
