Probelm Description
This issue is caused by FormData not supporting structured clone. To avoid SOP restriction, requests to Canvas are proxied using Electron IPC, which sends data between different processes using structured clone. As a result, FormData are not properly sent to Electron main process, so the request to Qualtrics OAuth endpoint lacks of parameters.
Solution
Fix is applied by using URL parameters to make the request rather than FormData.
Testing Note
window.location.href
in the developer console to use the local build of token-atm-spa.
