Agentic Automation

Can anyone help me to get my client ID and client secret orchestrator UiPath community edition to trigger the workflow from postman?

Logged in to https://cloud.uipath.com
and went to Admin → External Applications.

Clicked Add Application → Confidential Application, gave it a name (for example, PostmanTrigger), and used any redirect URL like https://localhost.

Selected the scopes I needed – OR.Jobs, OR.Execution, OR.Folders, and OR.Robots.

Saved the app and copied the Client ID and Client Secret.

Then in Postman:

Created a POST request to
https://cloud.uipath.com/identity_/connect/token

Used x-www-form-urlencoded body with:

grant_type: client_credentials
client_id: <your_client_id>
client_secret: <your_client_secret>
scope: OR.Jobs OR.Execution OR.Folders

After sending this, I got the access token.
With that token, I could trigger jobs using:

You asking to copy client id and client secret but I get only app id and app secret after adding the external application.

When you create an External Application in UiPath Cloud, the App ID and App Secret that are shown in the portal actually serve as your Client ID and Client Secret.

So in Postman, you just need to map them like this:

client_id → use the App ID from UiPath

client_secret → use the App Secret from UiPath

I have tried this already but it showing error message of unauthorized_client even after mapping the corrent app id and app secret.
