Code example to get a Sharepoint Access Token to use with the Sharepoint REST API using a python 3 provider-hosted Sharepoint App (using cherrypy). This code takes the data POSTed to it when you click on the app in Sharepoint, and authenticates using OAuth to get the access token. To use the Sharepoint REST API with OAuth, the app needs to be re…

import cherrypy

cherrypy.quickstart(GetAccessToken())

Really thanks!
