Some Social-ID NOW APIs require OAuth 2.0 authentication instead of HTTP Basic.
In order to access them one needs first to request an access token through the token endpoint. Each access token has its own scope and allows a certain set of APIs.
Please, refer to https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6749 if you are not familiar with the OAuth 2.0 protocol.
Token Endpoint
| Resource | Grant Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| POST /oauth/token | password | Generates a new user access token given a combination of username/email_address and password. |
| POST /oauth/token | provider_credentials | Generates a new user access token given an oauth token issued by an external provider. |
| POST /oauth/token | client_credentials | Generates a new app access token. |
| POST /oauth/token | refresh_token | Refreshes an access token, generating a new one. |
