  Hello,

  I am trying to setup OAuth authentication for a nodejs app I am building which needs credential to access my blog via API.

  In the docs I read that I should use these 2 endpoints, but I receive a 404 error.

  https://public-api.wordpress.com/oauth2/authorize

  https://public-api.wordpress.com/oauth2/token

  I am using the simple-oauth2 nodejs package which workers well with other OAuth authentication pages, I tested it they don’t give the 404 (page not found) error.

  Can someone help me?

  Thank you

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  I add the code I am using to authenticate:

  const config = {
      client: {
        id: process.env.WORDPRESS_CLIENT_ID,
        secret: process.env.WORDPRESS_SECRET,
        
      },
      auth: {
        tokenHost: "https://public-api.wordpress.com/oauth2/token"
      }
    };
  
  async function run() {
      console.log("Creating client...")
      const client = new ClientCredentials(config);
    
      const tokenParams:ClientCredentialTokenConfig = {
          scope: '<scope>',
        };
      
        try {
          console.log("Getting token...")
          const accessToken = await client.getToken(tokenParams);
          console.log( accessToken )
        } catch (error) {
          console.log('Access Token error', error);
        }
    }
    
    run();

  The error returned:
