Description

https://engage-voice-api-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/authentication/auth-ringcentral/

form-urlencoded vs query parameter

The docs says

POST https://engage.ringcentral.com/api/auth/login/rc/accesstoken
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded

rcAccessToken=<rcAccessToken>&rcTokenType=Bearer

But as I tested, specifying rcAccessToken=<rcAccessToken>&rcTokenType=Bearer as query parameter works too.

Is it by design or legacy issue?

It works for some extensions but not all

For my account(direct number 1650641xxxx), it works

For 1720386xxxx*11115 it does not work. The error message is:

{"message":"Invalid argument supplied [Please specify a valid platform!]","detail":"Please specify a valid platform!","status":409,"statusDetail":"CONFLICT"}

Research direction

Start with auth-ringcentral.md and compare the documented form-urlencoded request with the reported query-parameter behavior. Investigate the direct-number and extension cases, then clarify the supported request format and the cause or resolution for the “valid platform” error in the documentation.
