Authorization Code OAuth

To generate an access token by using Authorization Code OAuth:
  1. Enter the following:
    1. Token URL: The URL of the token provider.
    2. Auth Provider: The token provider for the OAuth 2.0 authentication. See the Supported Token Providers.
    3. Client Id: The ID of the application that is required for authorization.
    4. Client Secret: The secret key of the application that is required for authorization.
    5. Redirect URL: The URL of the application where the user will be redirected by the OAuth server after authorization.
    6. Auth URL: The URL of the OAuth server that will authorize the application.
  2. Click Authorize.
  3. Enter the Authorization Code. The code is provided by the OAuth server after authorizing the application and is required to generate the token. This authorization code is available on the URL after you approve the authorization.
  4. Enter the Scope of the OAuth 2.0 authentication.
  5. Click Generate token next to the Token field.
When you generate an access token by this method, Splunk AppDynamics automatically refreshes the access token upon expiry if a refresh token is available. If the refresh token is not available or has expired, access token can not be automatically refreshed. In such scenario, an email notification is sent to the Account owner before the access token expires. If you are an Account owner, you need to manually generate the access token by following the preceding steps.
