Access Token

Access token is necessary to access any API described in this guide. You can get the access token using OAuth2.0 client credentials flow.

Call for Token​

To get the access token, you need to send a POST request to the following endpoint:

Demo Token Curl​

curl --location 'https://demo.hng.one/oauth/oauth/token' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data '{
    "grant_type": "client_credentials",
    "client_id": "<<YOUR_CLIENT_ID>>",
    "client_secret": "<<YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET>>",
    "audience": "https://play.medeintegra.dev"
}'

Prod Token Curl​

curl --location 'https://aths.hng.one/oauth/oauth/token' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data '{
    "grant_type": "client_credentials",
    "client_id": "<<YOUR_CLIENT_ID>>",
    "client_secret": "<<YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET>>",
    "audience": "https://medeintegra.dev"
}'

Sample Response​

You will receive a response similar to below

{
    "code": "Ok",
    "message": "Token Obtained Successfully",
    "token_type": "Bearer",
    "access_token": "<<JWT_TOKEN>>",
    "expires_in": 3600
}

The access_token in the response can be used to access the APIs.
