Uber API: Specify multiple scopes while requesting or issuing a token returns Invalid Request Paramenters

I know that the OAuth 2.0 specs allows to specify multiple scopes while requesting or issuing a token, but Uber doesn't like the multiple scopes.

For example:

1) [No error]

parameters = {

'response_type': 'code',
'redirect_uri': 'INSERT_ROUTE_TO_STEP_TWO',
'scope': 'profile',

}

Returns correct token and I can retrieve the user profile via 'https://api.uber.com/v1/me'

2) [Error]

parameters = {

'response_type': 'code',
'redirect_uri': 'INSERT_ROUTE_TO_STEP_TWO',
'scope': 'profile%20history',

}

Uber returns "Invalid Request Parameters". I tried 'scope': 'profile%20history' and 'scope': 'profile history'. Both cases returns the same error.

I'm an Android developer using https://github.com/twotoasters/AndrOAuth as a test.

Thanks

Scope uses space delimiters.

You should pass scope as 'scope': 'profile history' and let the underlying http library handle the URI conversion rather than doing it explicitly by yourself.

I'm sure you figured this out by now, but you are using a space to delimit your scope arguments and the api calls for a comma.
