Xbox Music RESTful API on Azure access problems

Question

The simple goal here is to access the Xbox Music RESTful API on Azure and I stumble on the first part of it which is getting the Access Token. By following this procedure: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn546686.aspx it's simply not allowing me to get a token.

Thus far I have:

• I have a datamarket registration
• I registered an application, got a client_id and client_secret
• Subscribed to the Xbox Music RESTful API

Then I simply try to get a token either through a POST using XMLHttpRequest or Advanced Rest Client for Chrome and thus far all I receive is this Json response:

{
    "error":"invalid_client",
    "error_description":"ACS50012: Authentication failed.\r\nTrace ID: d2469189-d620-4725-98c6-544e3899d711\r\nCorrelation ID: 3726a6c7-de19-4873-a90c-b51c7ca447a7\r\nTimestamp: 2014-05-08 14:18:31Z"
}

I did some research for this error here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg429787.aspx but can't seem to pull an explanation for this.

The data explorer is also broken as I receive this:

The request resulted in a backend time out or backend error. The team is investigating the issue. We are sorry for the inconvenience. (502)

In the end I assume something is bogus with my account but can't figure it out. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Answer 1

See comment, recreate a new application and copy client secret properly.
