ROPC Defined Example OAuth 2.0
Specify user credentials in the authentication request to perform API operations based on Ennov InSight security permissions.
To define client credentials:
-
Submit a
HTTPS POST request to:
https://login.microsoftonline.com/<tenant_id>/oauth2/v2.0/token
The tenant_id format: xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx.Note: In the URL above common is no longer supported with the v2 oauth2 endpoints so tenant_id must be used. The following parameters are updated.The body of the request should include the form-data:
Parameter Name Value grant_type password client_id xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx scope <registered client_id>/.default openid user name <user account with security permissions> password <password_for user_account> client_secret <registered client_secret> The Response generates an AzureBearerBody Token used in conjunction with the API X-CSRF-TOKEN access token generated in step 3. -
Submit an HTTPS GET request to get a token.
Send an HTTP request (GET-request) to: http://hostname:port/insight/api/v2/tokenThe body of the JSON response includes
with the current session ID. The response header contains the following values:{ "xAuthToken": "44B1E9C995C654E38DDD82BF708784D1" }Parameter Name Value X-CSRF-HEADER X-CSRF-TOKEN X-CSRF-PARAM _csrf X-CSRF-TOKEN 40d67d97-fb28-4a78-a111-5bae0ee706bb - Use that token and login information to authenticate.
-
Send a login POST-request to pass authentication using the same session (set JSESSIONID):
Parameter Name Value URI: http://hostname:port/insight/api/v2/login Request header values: Content-Type: "application/json" X-CSRF-TOKEN: 40d67d97-fb28-4a78-a111-5bae0ee706bb. This value is retrieved as a result of the previous request. (http://hostname:port/insight/api/v2/token) Request body (raw): {"access_token":"<obtained_access_token>", "token_type":"Bearer" This is the Azure Generated Authorization Token gathered in steps 1 and 2.
After successful logon, the application creates a new session and a new token to use in subsequent API calls. The response header contains the following values:Parameter Name Values X-CSRF-HEADER X-CSRF-TOKEN X-CSRF-PARAM _csrf X-CSRF-TOKEN 40d67d97-fb28-4a78-a111-5bae0ee706bb Cookie JSESSIONID=44B1E9C995C654E38DDD82BF708784D1 The value is taken from XAuthToken form described in the step 2.
-
Make an API call with your new token.
All subsequent REST API POST-requests (read/create/create-or-update/delete for a specific entity) are sent through "/api/v2" URI (example: http://hostname:port/insight/api/v2/event/46098/delete) with the following attributes:
Instead of X-CSRF-TOKEN header, you can use the "_csrf" param.Parameter Name Value Request header values: Content-Type: "application/json" X-CSRF-TOKEN: 40d67d97-fb28-4a78-a111-5bae0ee706bb Cookie: JSESSIONID=44B1E9C995C654E38DDD82BF708784D1 The value is taken from XAuthToken form described in the step 2.
