I am still having this issue. Tried doing it in Incognito and it still isn’t working.

I had the same issue. I ended up switching to the Chrome browser from Safari and it worked, weird but it worked for me.

I am facing this issue any fix

I had a similar issue the first time I ran the python quickstart.py command, but tried a second time (without install anything else) and it ran fine.

Had this problem as well in Safari; but it worked when I put the authorization url into FireFox.
