Speaking of which, how is an error code returned if the HTTP status is *not* 401? 3.1. Error Codes When a request fails, the resource server responds using the appropriate HTTP status code (typically, 400, 401, 403, or 405), and includes one of the following error codes in the response: invalid_request The request is missing a required parameter, includes an unsupported parameter or parameter value, repeats the same parameter, uses more than one method for including an access token, or is otherwise malformed. The resource server SHOULD respond with the HTTP 400 (Bad Request) status code. ... Is the assumption that the response body is always application/json in that case? It might be good to clarify that.
