Login request not working - Code of length 6 returned instead of len32

Developer API
1

Hey. I am trying to generate the access token after login, but the redirect url returns with a code of length 6, instead of the 32-len code.
Can you please assist.

What I get after visiting the auth URL: LOGIN_URL = Login to Upstox
is:
https://127.0.0.1/?code=P2TWEw

You need to obtain an access token by utilizing the Get Token API, accessible at this URL: Get Token | Upstox Developer API

The six-digit code you receive at this link, https://127.0.0.1/?code=P2TWEw, represents an auth code. This code serves as input for generating an access token also with other parameters mentioned in the document.

It’s important to note that the authentication code is valid for a single use only while generating access token.

So is the “P2TWEw” code correct? Shouldn’t this be a longer code?
Because when I use that as authorization code, to get the access token, I get the below error:
“Error: Non-base32 digit found”

Enter the authentication code from the URL: YmnHRi

P2TWEw is your 6-digit auth code which is correct. After obtaining the auth code, please refer the following gist for instructions on generating the access token: Generate Access Token · GitHub
