Invalid Scope: The requested scope is invalid, unknown, malformed, or exceeds the scope granted to t

My code is the following:

    $guzzleClient = new \GuzzleHttp\Client();
    $response = $guzzleClient->post('https://api.sandbox.ebay.com/identity/v1/oauth2/token', [
        'headers' => [
            'Authorization' => 'Basic ' . $oauthToken,
            'Content-Type' => 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded',
            'Accept' => 'application/json',
        ],
        'form_params' => [
            'grant_type' => 'client_credentials',
            'scope' => 'https://api.ebay.com/oauth/api_scope/sell.fulfillment.readonly'
        ]
    ]);

I get t he following response:

"{"error":"invalid_scope","error_description":"The requested scope is invalid, unknown, malformed, or exceeds the scope granted to the client"}"

But https://api.ebay.com/oauth/api_scope is the only scope that works.

This is the OathScopes window:

The displayed code is mixing a user-token call with application-token parameters.

https://developer.ebay.com/api-docs/static/authorization_guide_landing.html

When using an API to browse, like a guest, no access is required to get into a user account, so the generalized "client credential" for the application is sufficient. A token will be issued that must be renewed every two hours.

https://developer.ebay.com/api-docs/static/oauth-client-credentials-grant.html

When accessing a user account to manage fulfillment, a "user authentication" process is required to obtain permission and to mint a token to access the user's eBay account. The process starts with obtaining a 5-minute consent from the user.

https://developer.ebay.com/api-docs/static/oauth-consent-request.html

That consent is then converted to an 18-month user token, that requires a 2-hour refresh token.

Hi, thanks for reply. My goal is to retreive the orders by REST API. I still dont understand what I'm doing wrong.

If understand, I have to first make

GET https://auth.sandbox.ebay.com/oauth2/authorize

then.

POST https://api.sandbox.ebay.com/identity/v1/oauth2/token

This is my new code (for the first request):

$base64auth = base64_encode($appId . ':' . $clientId);
// get user token with guzzle
$params = [
    'client_id' => $clientId,
    'redirect_uri' => $redirectUri,
    'response_type' => 'code',
    'prompt' => 'login',
    'locale' => 'it_IT',
    'scope' => 'https://api.ebay.com/oauth/api_scope/sell.fulfillment',
];
$url = 'https://auth.sandbox.ebay.com/oauth2/authorize';

$fullUrl = $url . '?' . http_build_query($params);
$client = new \GuzzleHttp\Client();
$response = $client->get($fullUrl);

however I get the following error

GuzzleHttp\Exception\ConnectException with message 'cURL error 6: Could not resolve host: auth.it.sandbox.ebay.com (see https://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/libcurl-errors.html) for https://auth.it.sandbox.ebay.com/oauth2/authorize?client

What am I doing wrong?
