Hi, I am getting the issue of "Invalid request token". I followed the same steps as described.
Request Token: http://api.themoviedb.org/3/authentication/token/new?api_key=#######
Authenticate Token: https://www.themoviedb.org/authenticate/REQUEST_TOKEN
When I do this request I am getting invalid request token

Hi saridesindhu@gmail.com,
I'm not sure. Are you making sure to copy the
request_tokenfrom the response you get from/token/new? I just tried it and it worked fine for me. Remember, you only have 1 hour to use the token before it expires. Are you making sure the token is a new one?Svar från saridesindhu@gmail.com

HI, Thanks for your reply. The mistake I made is in the URL given "https://www.themoviedb.org/authenticate/REQUEST_TOKEN" , we need to send the token we got in REQUEST_TOKEN. I misunderstood it. Now it worked fine for me. Once again thanks for your reply.
