Hi All,
I have Doors 9.5.2 Server, Client and DWA (Doors Web Access) configured on my machine.
I am able to access the Doors Web UI now.
As per the documentation I am able to get the rootServices using the URL

https://hostname:8443/dwa/public/rootservices

Now,I want to access the catalog using Mozilla Rest Client ,So I am using the link ,

http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/rational/library/oslc-services-rational-doors/

As discussed in Notes on oAuth. I am able to perform 2 steps as mentioned of the 3 steps

    1. Obtain a Request Token
    2. Authorize Request Token
    3. Exchange the Request Token for an Access Token
    
 I am not able to perform the 3 steps which says to exchange the request token for an access token.
 I mean which
 1.) HTTP URL to query
 2.) HTTP method i,e GET,POST etc
 3.) Headers exactly used ?

1) The URL mentioned in jfs:oauthAccessTokenUrl, which typically is https://<server>:<port>/dwa/oauth-access-token
2) POST
3) Use the Authentication menu in RESTClient and select oauth. For Access token and Access Token Secret, use the request token/secret pair. Note, you'll need to url encode the secret (I don't remember if RESTClient takes care of it)..

So this should give you the Access token/secret. Go to Authentication menu again and replace the Access token/secret with the newly obtained pair. You should then be good to access catalog.
