client_secret from Amazon Echo

Hi, I am new to OAuth2.0 and hence this question may sound silly but where is [b]client_secret[/b] given ? is it in the body , header or url . i was using chrome extension postman to emulate OAuth2.0 request but dint find client_secret param any where. When Amazon Echo sends the request, where is it supposed to be fetched from ?

Hi menuecho, Apologies for this delay -- have you been able to resolve your issue? If not, could you please provide more details about your use case? What are you using OAuth for? Is this to build a Smart Home skill using the lighting API? Or are you trying to build a skill using the Alexa Skills Kit (ASK), or something else? The client-secret is not something the Echo would send in the request, but is something you as a developer would define while setting up the OAuth server. Please describe in more detail on which of the scenarios you're working on. Thanks!
