Connect with an API token
-
In SecureAuth:
- Sign in to SecureAuth Connect and open the Admin workspace (or the System workspace for System APIs).
- Enable client credentials: select OAuth › Authorization Server › Allowed grant types › Client credentials, then select Save changes.
- Create an application in the same workspace, choosing Server Web Application or Service Application.
- In the application's OAuth view, add
client_credentialsto Grant Types (for other application types, set Token Endpoint Authentication Method to Client Secret Post). - Copy the client ID and client secret from the application's Overview page.
- Exchange them for an access token at
https://\{tid\}.connect.secureauth.com/\{tid\}/\{aid\}/oauth2/token. - Optionally go to the application's Scopes view and enable only the scopes it needs.
Where to find the other values:
- Base URL (optional): Your SecureAuth URL,
https://<tenant-id>.connect.secureauth.com/. - Account / Org / Workspace (optional): The tenant ID is the first part of your SecureAuth URL; the workspace ID (aid) is the workspace's authorization server identifier.
SecureAuth's public documentation does not cover every step.
