Acquire the Authentication ID – To begin the process, invoke the ui/common/ModernAuth/GetModernAuthID REST endpoint to obtain the Authentication ID. The C# code snippet below illustrates this step:

Code Block

language	c#

private static string GetID()
{
  var web = new WebClient();
  var urla = $"https://my.empoweriempowerid/ui/common/ModernAuth/GetModernAuthID";
  var responseString = web.DownloadString(urla);
  return responseString;
}

Perform Authentication – Launch a browser or a browser tab and direct it to the '/PerformAuth' endpoint. Provide the Authentication ID acquired in the first step ('{sid}') and the Client ID of the OAuth application ('{clientId}') as parameters. The URL should look similar to that shown below.
https://my.empowerid/ui/common/ModernAuth/PerformAuth/?sid={sid}&client_id={clientId}

nopanel true

Obtain the Access Token – Invoke the /ui/common/ModernAuth/GetAccessToken/ REST endpoint using the Authentication ID acquired in the first step ('{sid}'). If the endpoint returns an empty response, the access token is not available. You can repeatedly call this endpoint with the Authentication ID at intervals of 10 to 15 seconds for a minute or two before determining that the authentication has failed. The C# code snippet below illustrates this step:

Code Block

language	c#

private static string GetToken()
{
  var web = new WebClient();
  var urla = $"https://my.empoweriempowerid/ui/common/ModernAuth/GetAccessToken/{sid}";
  var responseString = web.DownloadString(urla);
  if(!string.IsNullOrEmpty(responseString))
  {
    var data = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<DataClass>(responseString);
    return data.AccessToken
  }
  return null;
}

public class DataClass
{
  public string AccessToken {get; set;}
  public string {get; set;}
}
