AppSecret validation failed.

Been seeing this error all weekend when our app POSTs to https://api.edp.thomsonreuters.com:443/auth/oauth2/beta1/token:

{
"error": "access_denied",
"error_description": "AppSecret validation failed."
}

Submitted a ticket as well but refinitiv customer support doesn't seem to have context into the issue so posting here.
