Client Authentication
The requests made to the token service must be signed - leveraging HTTP Basic Authentication and Base64 encoding the client_id and client_secret:
$ echo -n '<client_id>:<client_secret>' | openssl base64
PGNsaWVudF9pZD46PGNsaWVudF9zZWNyZXQ+
require 'base64'
Base64.strict_encode64('<client_id>:<client_secret>')
# PGNsaWVudF9pZD46PGNsaWVudF9zZWNyZXQ+
import base64
base64.b64encode('<client_id>:<client_secret>')
# PGNsaWVudF9pZD46PGNsaWVudF9zZWNyZXQ+
echo -n 'clientId:clientSecret' | base64
$b = [System.Text.Encoding]::UTF8.GetBytes("clientId:clientSecret")
App Listing
To list an app on AppConnect, a signed JWT must be used for additional security when retrieving a token.
