Receiving 400 error with authorizationCodeGrant

Hi,

I’m trying to create a playlist (after the user logs in), but after trying to generate a new access_token using authorizationCodeGrant(), I get “{ [WebapiError: Bad Request] name: ‘WebapiError’, message: ‘Bad Request’, statusCode: 400 }”. I am using the same code that is generated after the callback on user login.

spotifyApi.authorizationCodeGrant(code)
  		   .then(function(data) {
	    	          spotifyApi.setAccessToken(data.body['access_token']);
	    	          spotifyApi.setRefreshToken(data.body['refresh_token']);
	    	          spotifyApi.createPlaylist(userObj['id'], playlistName, { public : false })
	    	              .then(function(data) {
	    	                  sendTextMessage(sender, "success! created playlist: " + JSON.stringify(data.body))
	    	              }, function(err) {
	    	                         console.log('Something went wrong createPlaylist!', err);
	    	             });
  		   }, function(err) {
    	                   console.log('Something went wrong authorizationCodeGrant!', err);
});

Any help is appreciated, thank you!

I was getting a similar error until I added redirectUri to my SpotifyWebApi instance. Like so:

const spotifyApi = new SpotifyWebApi({
  clientId: '123',
  clientSecret: 'abc',
  redirectUri: 'https://example.com/callback'
});

spotifyApi.authorizationCodeGrant(code).then(doStuffWithData) // no more 400

do I have to generate an authorizationCcode every time I run my script?
