Step 1: Create OAuth Credentials

- Go to Adobe Developer Console: https://developer.adobe.com/console
- Create a new project.
- Add an API (e.g., Adobe Acrobat Sign API or others).

- Choose OAuth Server-to-Server or OAuth 2.0 (Authorization Code), based on your need.

Once setup is complete, you'll get:
- Client ID (API Key)
- Client Secret
- Org ID

Step 2: Generate Access Token
Use Postman or curl to generate token:
- For OAuth Server-to-Server:

curl -X POST https://ims-na1.adobelogin.com/ims/token/v3 \
  -H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" \
  -d "client_id=YOUR_CLIENT_ID" \
  -d "client_secret=YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET" \
  -d "grant_type=client_credentials" \
  -d "scope=agreement_read:account agreement_write:account"

Response: will include access_token

Step 3: Use API (Create Agreement Example)

curl -X POST https://api.na1.echosign.com/api/rest/v6/agreements \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d @3371165-agreement-payload.json

Have you tried the steps per documentation? https://experienceleague.adobe.com/en/docs/experience-platform/landing/platform-apis/api-authentication#select-oauth-server-to-server

There is a detailed walkthru video. And this is a curl to verify your creds

curl -X GET https://platform.adobe.io/data/foundation/schemaregistry/global/classes \
  -H 'Accept: application/vnd.adobe.xed-id+json' \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer {{ACCESS_TOKEN}}' \
  -H 'x-api-key: {{API_KEY}}' \
  -H 'x-gw-ims-org-id: {{ORG_ID}}'
