This topic describes how to consume the EmpowerID REST API with the different OAuth 2.0 flows. Please note that before you can use the framework with your application, you must register that application in EmpowerID. This generates an API Key, Client Secret and Client ID for your application.
You can download sample .NET framework code at https://dl.empowerid.com/OAuthTestSamplecode.zip

Authorization Code Grant using .NET Client Library
1. Initialize ClientSettings
by passing the client_id
, client_secret
, redirect_uri
, token_endpoint
, authorization_endpoint
, tokeninfo_endpoint
and userinfo_endpoint

by passing the clientSettings model.
var clientSettings = new ClientSettings( “client_id”, “client_secret”, “redirect_uri”, “https://<EID Server>/oauth/v2/token”, “https://<EID Server>/oauth/v2/ui/authorize”, “https://<EID Server>/oauth/v2/tokeninfo”, “https://<EID Server>/oauth/v2/userinfo”); var handler = new AuthorizationCodeGrant(clientSettings);
2. Call the BuildAuthorizationRequestPacket()
method to build authorization code flow parameters.
//Generate random nonce and state var nonce = Guid.NewGuid().ToString("N"); var state = Guid.NewGuid().ToString("N"); //Use the below code for "code" flow to build parameters var parameters = handler.BuildAuthorizationRequestPacket (ParameterFormat.FormUrlEncoded, state, null, nonce, null); //Use the below code for "code id_token" flow to build parameters //var responseTypes = new List<ResponseType> { ResponseType.id_token }; //var parameters = handler.BuildAuthorizationRequestPacket //(ParameterFormat.FormUrlEncoded, state, "openid", nonce, responseTypes); //Generate redirect URL var redirectUrl = string.Format("{0}?{1}", clientSettings.AuthorizeUrl, parameters);
