I'm using Postman 5.1.3. I'm trying to connect to an OAuth 1.0a endpoint using Postman's OAuth screen. How do I view the raw signature that Postman is using to construct its hashed "oauth_signature" param? I'm filling in a value for

consumer_key
consumer_secret
signature_method
timestamp
nonce
version

I'm leaving the HTTP method as "GET" and clicking "Send". Everything goes through fine, but I'm not able to reproduce the behavior in Java, which is why I'm seeking a way to view the raw signature Postman uses when building its request.

Are you aware of the option to generate the code snippet for you? you still have to use a library to generate the signature thoughIndreetloire

To generate the signature, postman follow the RFC, there is no point for them to display the steps to generate that, so it is unavailable on display.

RFC is 5849 section 3.4 for signature stuff. It is quite explicit.

SO discourages posting of links in answers b/c links break. It is better to cut and paste the relevant portion fo the requirement in the answer.Sesquicentennial
