This section contains information on generating an access token to authorize API calls for configuring providers and clients.
Note: It is recommended that only developers with good API concept use the
token generation feature.
Before initiating API requests for token generation, you must dowload the Hyland Identity Service Postman Collection and Environment for IdP.
Note: You must have Postman installed in your system to download
and import the API collection and environment files.
The \connect\token endpoint requires the following parameters:
| Parameters | Value |
|---|---|
| Grant Type | Client Credentials |
| Client ID | <Service Account Client Id> |
| Client Secret | <Generated Secret> |
| Scope |
idpadmin
Note: Only
idpadmin is allowed for the
Scope attribute.

Note: A generated token is valid for 15 minutes only and cannot be
overridden.
