abstract member AcquireTokenSilentAsync : seq<string> * Microsoft.Identity.Client.IAccount -> System.Threading.Tasks.Task<Microsoft.Identity.Client.AuthenticationResult>Public Function AcquireTokenSilentAsync (scopes As IEnumerable(Of String), account As IAccount) As Task(Of AuthenticationResult)Parameters
- scopes
- IEnumerable<String>
Scopes requested to access a protected API
Returns
An AuthenticationResult containing the requested token
- Attributes
Exceptions
can be thrown in the case where an interaction is required with the end user of the application, for instance so that the user consents, or re-signs-in (for instance if the password expired), or performs two factor authentication
Remarks
The access token is considered a match if it contains at least all the requested scopes. This means that an access token with more scopes than requested could be returned as well. If the access token is expired or close to expiration (within 5 minute window), then the cached refresh token (if available) is used to acquire a new access token by making a silent network call. See https://aka.ms/msal-net-acuiretokensilent for more details

- scopes
- IEnumerable<String>
Scopes requested to access a protected API
- authority
- String
Specific authority for which the token is requested. Passing a different value than configured in the application constructor narrows down the selection of tenants for which to get a tenant, but does not change the configured value
- forceRefresh
- Boolean
If true, the will ignore the access token in the cache and attempt to acquire new access token
using the refresh token for the account if this one is available. This can be useful in the case when the application developer wants to make
sure that conditional access policies are applies immediately, rather than after the expiration of the access token
Returns
An AuthenticationResult containing the requested token
- Attributes
Exceptions
can be thrown in the case where an interaction is required with the end user of the application, for instance, if no refresh token was in the cache, or the user needs to consents, or re-sign-in (for instance if the password expired), or performs two factor authentication
