I am trying to edit a custom object I created in salesforce but I can't get it to work. I am using this tutorial bellow and trying it using postman. What am I doing wrong?

Login Tutorial: https://rajvakati.com/2017/10/19/salesforce-username-and-password-oauth-flow/

Edit Tutorial: https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.api_rest.meta/api_rest/dome_update_fields.htm

My login request in Postman:

Postman Login Request

However when I try using the login token I got in my Edit request, I would get 401:

enter image description here

One potential issue is the edit request URL, the tutorial was not very clear on what to use and my instance is on lighting. Is my URL correct?

https://<<INSTANCE_NAME>>.lightning.force.com/services/data/v36.0/sobjects/jorders__c/<<OBJECT_ID>>

Figure it out using it the answer here, turn out the URL have to be whatever is returned from the login step.
