= Entitlement API Tokens
|
|
|
|
An entitlement API token (EAT) is a special OAuth2 access token with the scope *kc_entitlement*.
|
|
|
|
Client applications can obtain an EAT from {project_name} like any other OAuth2 access token. Usually, client applications obtain EATs after the user is successfully
|
|
authenticated in {project_name}. By default the _authorizaton_code_ grant type is used to authenticate a user and issue an OAuth2 access token to the client application acting on the user's behalf.
|
|
|
|
For demonstration purposes, the example below uses Resource Owner Password Credentials Grant Type to request an EAT:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
curl -X POST \
|
|
-H "Authorization: Basic aGVsbG8td29ybGQtYXV0aHotc2VydmljZTpwYXNzd29yZA==" \
|
|
-H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" \
|
|
-d 'username=${username}&password=${user_password}&grant_type=password' \
|
|
"http://localhost:8080/auth/realms/${realm_name}/protocol/openid-connect/token"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
As a result, the server response is:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"access_token": ${EAT},
|
|
"expires_in": 300,
|
|
"refresh_expires_in": 1800,
|
|
"refresh_token": ${refresh_token},
|
|
"token_type": "bearer",
|
|
"id_token": ${id_token},
|
|
"not-before-policy": 0,
|
|
"session_state": "3cad2afc-855b-47b7-8e4d-a21c66e312fb"
|
|
}
|
|
```
