The /oauth2/token endpoint requires a POST, not a GET, so you're accordingly receiving a 405 error. Switch to using POST instead.

You can find more information in the documentation:

It looks like you're also missing the app key and secret, and redirect URI, if used. Make sure you format the request as documented and include all of the necessary parameters.
