To clarify my above response, you could also approach this by coding an administrative interface which allows an authorized admin user to link your application via the interactive flow (using the api only account) and then persists the tokens that will be used for the subsequent calls. This would also allow to refresh the tokens if they become invalid and for some reason it's not possible to get a new one via a refresh token etc...
Hi Paolo Tagliaferri,
Thanks for the information. Below are the steps we planned :
1.Create API user
2.Log in manually with the "API user" to our lithium communities site and obtain an access and refresh token. Could you please help me to understand the steps involved in obtaining access and refresh key after log in ?
3.Once we get the access and refresh key with manual log in process , we are planning to store it in our system to use whenever we are calling lithium communities using REST API to get the data
Do you see any issues with above process ?
And also could you please elaborate on administrative interface process you mentioned below ?
Thanks a lot for your support,
Hari
