Create bearer token

1. POST to our token endpoint

   1. Set grant_type=client_credentials and scope=externalapi in the post body

   2. Set Content-Type

1. 1. =application/x-www-form-urlencoded

   2. Set Authorization header

      1. Header format is Basic Base64(Utf8(clientId:secret)) 

      2. Example: The header for clientId=

1. 1. 1. democlient and secret=

1. 1. 1. demosecret would become ZGVtb2NsaWVudDpkZW1vc2VjcmV0

      2. So the Authorize header for the Identity server should be:
         Basic ZGVtb2NsaWVudDpkZW1vc2VjcmV0

   2. Example return value:

1. 1. Code Block
      language json
      { "access_token": "eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciNlcyIsImV4cCI6MTQ2MzA", "expires_in": 3600, "token_type": "Bearer" }

Authentication

When calling one of our web services set the Authorize header to

Bearer [access_token]

Example: Bearer eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciNlcyIsImV4cCI6MTQ2MzA
