Research direction

Start at the Python SDK's get_bearer_token function and reproduce the OAuth 2.0 step 12 flow using the sandbox credentials described. Compare the Python SDK and python-jose versions involved, including the Python Lambda redirect path. Done means identifying the source of the algorithm-key error and confirming a working bearer-token exchange.

Description

I´m using the Oauth 2.0 flow process with Python SDK, in the step 12 using the get_bearer_token function i get the error shown in the image. I make the peticion in a instance made in node JS and the redirect URl is located in a lambda function made in python. All the credentials are the same (sandbox).
error
Following the steps this error appears and i verified all the steps and anythings works. I update the python-jose library used by intuit but nothing has worked. Anyone has seen this error? Any hint /advice.
