Getting started
Authentication
PEXA adheres to industry best practices to authenticate and authorise access to the PEXA APIs. PEXA supports the Client Credentials OAuth 2.0 authentication methods.
What is the Client Credentials flow?
The OAuth 2.0 Client Credentials flow is designed for Machine-to-Machine (M2M) authentication. This method provides a way for applications or systems to securely authenticate and access APIs on behalf of the client application itself, rather than a specific user. Authentication is granted by passing an access token in the request header of the API. An access token is received by passing a series of client-specific credentials to the authentication server.
How to get credentials?
To authenticate using OAuth 2.0 Client credentials, the client applications need to follow the steps outlined below.
- The client makes a request to the authorisation server sending the client ID, the client secret, along with the audience and other claims. (Details of these parameters are explained below.)
- The authorisation server validates the request, and, if successful, sends a response with an access token.
- The client can now use the access token to send requests to the resource server (i.e. the PEXA API).
- The resource server sends back the response.
