Authentication - Client Credentials Grant

The Client Credentials Grant is used when a client (such as a backend service) needs to authenticate itself and obtain an access token without user involvement.

Request Example

Use the following curl command to request an access token:

curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/token \
     -H "Authorization: Basic $(echo -n 'client1:MyClientSecret1' | base64)" \
     -H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" \
     --data "grant_type=client_credentials"
