Click the Get Token button below to log in with your Authlete account and retrieve an access token for API access.

Path Parameters

serviceId
string
required

The value of parameters is the entire entity body (which is formatted in application/x-www-form-urlencoded) of the request from the client application.

clientId
string

The client ID extracted from Authorization header of the token request from the client application.

If the token endpoint of the authorization server implementation supports basic authentication as a means of client authentication, and the request from the client application contained its client ID in Authorization header, the value should be extracted and set to this parameter.

clientSecret
string

The client secret extracted from Authorization header of the token request from the client application.

If the token endpoint of the authorization server implementation supports basic authentication as a means of client authentication, and the request from the client application contained its client secret in Authorization header, the value should be extracted and set to this parameter.

clientCertificate
string

The client certificate from the MTLS of the token request from the client application.

clientCertificatePath
string

The certificate path presented by the client during client authentication. These certificates are strings in PEM format.

properties
string

Extra properties to associate with an access token. See Extra Properties for details.

dpop
string

DPoP header presented by the client during the request to the token endpoint.

The header contains a signed JWT which includes the public key that is paired with the private key used to sign the JWT. See OAuth 2.0 Demonstration of Proof-of-Possession at the Application Layer (DPoP) for details.

htm
string

HTTP method of the token request. This field is used to validate the DPoP header.

In normal cases, the value is POST. When this parameter is omitted, POST is used as the default value. See OAuth 2.0 Demonstration of Proof-of-Possession at the Application Layer (DPoP) for details.

htu
string

URL of the token endpoint. This field is used to validate the DPoP header.

If this parameter is omitted, the tokenEndpoint property of the Service is used as the default value. See OAuth 2.0 Demonstration of Proof-of-Possession at the Application Layer (DPoP) for details.

accessToken
string

The representation of an access token that may be issued as a result of the Authlete API call.

jwtAtClaims
string

Additional claims that are added to the payload part of the JWT access token.

oauthClientAttestation
string

The value of the OAuth-Client-Attestation HTTP header, which is defined in the specification of OAuth 2.0 Attestation-Based Client Authentication.

oauthClientAttestationPop
string

The value of the OAuth-Client-Attestation-PoP HTTP header, which is defined in the specification of OAuth 2.0 Attestation-Based Client Authentication.

accessTokenDuration
integer<int64>

The duration (in seconds) of the access token that may be issued as a result of the Authlete API call.

When this request parameter holds a positive integer, it is used as the duration of the access token in. In other cases, this request parameter is ignored.

refreshTokenDuration
integer<int64>

The duration (in seconds) of the refresh token that may be issued as a result of the Authlete API call.

When this request parameter holds a positive integer, it is used as the duration of the refresh token in. In other cases, this request parameter is ignored.

dpopNonceRequired
boolean

The flag indicating whether to require the DPoP proof JWT to include the nonce claim. Even if the service's dpopNonceRequired property is false, calling the /auth/token API with this dpopNonceRequired parameter true will force the Authlete API to check whether the DPoP proof JWT includes the expected nonce value.

Response

resultCode
string

The code which represents the result of the API call.

resultMessage
string

A short message which explains the result of the API call.

action
enum<string>

The next action that the authorization server implementation should take.

Available options:
INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR,
INVALID_CLIENT,

TOKEN_EXCHANGE,
JWT_BEARER
responseContent
string

The content that the authorization server implementation is to return to the client application. Its format varies depending on the value of action parameter.

username
string

The value of username request parameter in the token request. The client application must specify username when it uses Resource Owner Password Grant. In other words, when the value of grant_type request parameter is password, username request parameter must come along.

This parameter has a value only if the value of grant_type request parameter is password and the token request is valid.

password
string

The value of password request parameter in the token request. The client application must specify password when it uses Resource Owner Password Grant. In other words, when the value of grant_type request parameter is password, password request parameter must come along.

This parameter has a value only if the value of grant_type request parameter is password and the token request is valid.

ticket
string

The ticket which is necessary to call Authlete's /auth/token/fail API or /auth/token/issue API.

This parameter has a value only if the value of grant_type request parameter is password and the token request is valid.

accessToken

integer<int64>

The duration of the newly issued access token in seconds.

refreshToken
string

The newly issued refresh token.

refreshTokenExpiresAt
integer<int64>

clientIdAliasUsed
boolean

The flag which indicates whether the client ID alias was used when the token request was made. true if the client ID alias was used when the token request was made.

subject
string

The subject (= resource owner's ID) of the access token. Even if an access token has been issued by the call of /api/auth/token API, this parameter is null if the flow of the token request was Client Credentials Flow (grant_type=client_credentials) because it means the access token is not associated with any specific end-user.

scopes
string[]

The scopes covered by the access token.

properties
object[]

The extra properties associated with the access token. This parameter is null when no extra property is associated with the issued access token.

jwtAccessToken
string

Duration of the c_nonce in seconds.

dpopNonce
string

refreshTokenScopes
string[]

Scopes associated with the refresh token.

sessionId
string

The session ID, which is the ID of the user's authentication session, associated with a newly created access token.

deviceSecret
string

If the response from the /auth/token API contains the deviceSecret parameter, its value should be used as the value of this deviceSecret request parameter to the /nativesso API. The authorization server may choose to issue a new device secret; in that case, it is free to generate a new device secret and specify the new value.

If the response from the /auth/token API does not contain the deviceSecret parameter, or if its value is invalid, the authorization server must generate a new device secret and specify it in the deviceSecret parameter to the /nativesso API.

The specified value is used as the value of the device_secret property in the token response.

deviceSecretHash
string

The authorization server should compute the hash value of the device secret based on its own logic and specify the computed hash as the value of this deviceSecretHash request parameter to the /nativesso API.

When the deviceSecretHash parameter is omitted, the implementation of the /nativesso API generates the device secret hash by computing the SHA-256 hash of the device secret and encoding it with base64url. Note that this hash computation logic is not a rule defined in the Native SSO specification; rather, it is Authlete-specific fallback logic used when the deviceSecretHash parameter is omitted.
