[Known Issue] OAuth1.0a request fail when query param contain special character

[smaeda-ks]

Issue

A good example is one of our index (GET) API endpoints called Cards Fetch.
There's a required parameter card_uris and this value includes non-URI friendly characters such as card://1044294149527166979.

In this case, :// can be problematic. These are reserved characters (gen-delims) RFC3986 defines. Even though the OAuth library that Postman client is using encodes these characters in its OAuth signature creation stage, Postman client itself doesn't encode these characters (URI) when sending a request. So this causes the OAuth signature mismatch.

Workaround

If you're facing this issue, you can use this Pre-request script:
https://github.com/twitterdev/postman-twitter-ads-api/blob/master/scripts/pre-request.js

1. Copy & Past the above script into your request's Pre-request editor.
2. Disable Authorization type to No Auth
3. Send request

Please be noted that disabling Authorization as described above is for individual request objects. Please do not apply this to your top-level object.

Workaround (option 2)

If you're facing this issue for a POST request, you can use Body tab rather than Params tab.

1. Disable all params in Params tab
2. Open Body tab and click x-www-form-urlencoded then add params as needed

Postman 8.7.0 should resolve this issue.
