Answer
Error when getting new access token
Best answer by Johannes Hovda
Hi
The variables in Postman are case sensitive. When you hover over a variable in the authentication screen, you should see the resolved actual value. The “CURRENT” value for baseUrl should read something like “https://api.cognitedata.com”. See screenshots below.
(* Ignore the URL in my screenshot - I am connected to a different project.)
The color also indicates if the variables are not properly resolved - they should be orange, not red colors.
You can tell from the errors you are seeing that the variables are not properly resolved.
Make sure all variables are resolved, and you should hopefully have more luck.
Kind regards
Johannes
+8Hi ChandC, will you be able to replace the environmental variable baseURL to baseUrl and check whether you are able to generate an access token.
I’m still receiving the below error after updating the scope variable. Here is

+2Hi
Please let us know whether you are able to solve the issue with the help of Johannes.
Best regards,
Dilini
Sorry for the delay in getting back. YES, thank you Johannes. The problem was that the tenant-id variable was not being resolved.
