Hello Experts
Is there a basic working .Net sample on how to let a client authorize our app so we can get the access token and move forward from there?
We are able to get the token via password auth.
https://developers.ringcentral.com/guide/authentication/jwt-flow does not have sample payload necessary.
Your help is much appreciated.
This is a public function in the .NET SDK
public Task<TokenInfo> Authorize(string jwt)
{
var getTokenRequest = new GetTokenRequest
{
grant_type = "urn:ietf:params:oauth:grant-type:jwt-bearer",
assertion = jwt
};
return Authorize(getTokenRequest);
}
So you can authenticate your app like this
...
static RestClient restClient;
static void Main(string[] args)
{
restClient = new RestClient(
"RC_CLIENT_ID, "RC_CLIENT_SECRET", "RC_SERVER_URL");
restClient.Authorize("JWT_TOKEN").Wait();
...
}
Hey Phong
Thank you for your response.
The way I understand is that I would have page (aspx) that would have a button which will pass parameters to RC and RC will redirect back with the approval payload (json).
My experience with JWT authentication is very limited, so may be this might be a silly question. But what is the order of calls to be made? Also, which RingCentral library to use (there are two or three that I see on nuget).
Again, my apologies if these are too obvious of a question to be asking here.
JWT tokens can be used to replace the password flow which requires a username and password. It is used for Server-only (No UI) application.
What you wrote made me doubt that you want a user to login the app from a Web page. If that is the case, you have to create a Browser app (instead of Server-only) and choose the 3-legged authorization flow. See this quick start to begin. It also shows you what nugget packages you need to add to your project.
I did review that tutorial earlier.
But that code does not even compile.
This is kind of where I am wondering what I am doing wrong and posted the question here.
