We are using identity server to generate access token for our web services. We have added swagger also. But the problem we faced is, to generate an access token by using a code snippet for API automation. Is there any automated way to get access token by using the username and password?
Thank You.
Another way is to use IdentityModel NuGet to get the token. Example:
var client = new HttpClient();
var tokenResponse = await client.RequestClientCredentialsTokenAsync(new ClientCredentialsTokenRequest
{
Address = $"{IdentityServerUrl}/connect/token",
ClientId = "THE_CLIENT_ID",
ClientSecret = IdentityServerPass,
Scope = "api.read"
}).ConfigureAwait(false);
tokenResponse.HttpResponse.EnsureSuccessStatusCode();
