I'm attempting to get my access code by navigating to the URL below with my redirect_url and client_id filled in.
https://www.pinterest.com/oauth/?client_id=xxxxxx&redirect_url=https://www.xxxxxxx.com&scope=ads:rea...
However when I go to this website, I get a message about authorizing app, which I click authorize, however then I get redirected to:
https://www.pinterest.com/business/hub/?show_error=true
