REST API SWIFT

[NicB72]

So, I have read through all 81 pages of the REST API thread and not found an answer.

I am new to SWIFT and trying to use the REST API. Getting stuck at the auth component.
I have read Tesla Model S JSON API · Apiary

and I know its....

POST https://owner-api.teslamotors.com/oauth/token
Attributes

• grant_type
• client_id
• client_secret
• email
• password

So I am doing the usual

let url = NSURL(string: "https://owner-api.teslamotors.com/oauth/token")!
let request = NSMutableURLRequest(URL: url)
request.HTTPMethod = "POST"
request.setValue("password", forHTTPHeaderField: "grant_type")

and setting the rest of the header values
But I get back...

"Www-Authenticate" = "Bearer realm=\"Doorkeeper\", error=\"invalid_request\", error_description=\"The request is missing a required parameter, includes an unsupported parameter value, or is otherwise malformed.\"";



Optional("{\"error\":\"invalid_request\",\"error_description\":\"The request is missing a required parameter, includes an unsupported parameter value, or is otherwise malformed.\"}")

Those parameters are passed in as normal form/url encoded parameters and not in the header...

// Using OS X Playground

import XCPlayground
import Cocoa
XCPlaygroundPage.currentPage.needsIndefiniteExecution = true

let url = NSURL(string: "https://owner-api.teslamotors.com/oauth/token")!
let request = NSMutableURLRequest(URL: url)
var stringPost = "grant_type=password&client_id=aaaaa&client_secret=bbbbbb&[email protected]&password=zzzzzz"
request.HTTPMethod = "POST"
let data = stringPost.dataUsingEncoding(NSUTF8StringEncoding)
request.HTTPBody = data
let session = NSURLSession.sharedSession()
let task = session.dataTaskWithRequest(request) { data, response, error in
if let response = response, data = data {
print(response)
print(String(data: data, encoding: NSUTF8StringEncoding))
} else {
print(error)
}
}

task.resume()

This seems to work with the right client_id, client_secret, email and password as @fact200 indicated.
