@mohamedberrahal Can you pls try to test the API endpoint in postman first? ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/oktadev/original/2X/6/6a9877ac93da25c1122ebb28be255dc591a667b7.png) You can import Okta postman collections via the below reference: [https://developer.okta.com/docs/reference/postman-collections/](https://developer.okta.com/docs/reference/postman-collections/) ---

@mohamedberrahal Did you manually add the client id in Body? Why not add it in the authorization tab? What type of application you have? ---

@mohamedberrahal It looks like your client id is not correct. Also, the two screens you attached earlier is not revoke token. One is get token and another one is delete current session. I suggest you to open a support ticket through an email to [support@okta.com](mailto:support@okta.com). One of our dev support engineers will help you review this API issue. ---

As far as I know, access tokens can not be revoked, they just expire. That’s why we recommend having short-lived access tokens and long-lived refresh tokens. ---

It’s best to use our [logout API](https://developer.okta.com/docs/reference/api/oidc/#logout) when trying to end a user’s session. We also have a guide that shows how to sign users out. [https://developer.okta.com/docs/guides/sign-users-out/react/sign-out-of-okta/](https://developer.okta.com/docs/guides/sign-users-out/react/sign-out-of-okta/) ---

If you don’t have a ID Token, you can’t use the guides I suggested. I’d suggest having a short-lived access token instead. It’s possible there’s another technique, but I’m not familiar with it. ---
