Service to Service Calls Using Client Credentials

Artigo
09/16/2015

The OAuth 2.0 Client Credentials Grant Flow permits a web service (a confidential client) to use its own credentials to authenticate when calling another web service, instead of impersonating a user. In this scenario, the client is typically a middle-tier web service, a daemon service, or web site.

Client Credentials Grant Flow Diagram

The following diagram explains how the Client Credentials Grant flow works in Azure AD.

Client Credential Flow diagram

The client application authenticates to the Azure AD token issuance endpoint and requests an access token.
The Azure AD token issuance endpoint issues the access token.
The access token is used to authenticate to the secured resource.
Data from the secured resource is returned to the web application.

Register the Services in Azure AD

Register both the calling service and the receiving service in Azure Active Directory (Azure AD). For detailed instructions, see Adding, Updating, and Removing an App.

Request an Access Token

To request an access token, use an HTTP POST to the tenant-specific Azure AD endpoint.

https://login.microsoftonline.com/<tenant id>/oauth2/token

Service-to-Service Access Token Request

A service-to-service access token request contains the following parameters. All parameters are required.

Parameter	Description
response_type	[Required] Specifies the requested response type. In a Client Credentials Grant flow, the value must be client_credentials.
client_id	[Required] Specifies the Azure AD client id of the calling web service. To find the calling application's client ID, in the Azure Management Portal, click Active Directory, click the directory, click the application, and then click Configure.
client_secret	[Required] Enter a key registered for the calling web service in Azure AD. To create a key, in the Azure Management Portal, click Active Directory, click the directory, click the application, and then click Configure.
resource	[Required] Enter the App ID URI of the receiving web service. To find the App ID URI, in the Azure Management Portal, click Active Directory, click the directory, click the application, and then click Configure.

Example

The following HTTP POST requests an access token for the https://service.contoso.com/ web service. The client_id identifies the web service that requests the access token.

POST contoso.com/oauth2/token HTTP/1.1
Host: login.microsoftonline.com
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded

grant_type=client_credentials&client_id=625bc9f6-3bf6-4b6d-94ba-e97cf07a22de&client_secret=qkDwDJlDfig2IpeuUZYKH1Wb8q1V0ju6sILxQQqhJ+s=&resource=https%3A%2F%2Fservice.contoso.com%2F

Service-to-Service Access Token Response

A success response contains a JSON OAuth 2.0 response with the following parameters.

Parameter	Description
access_token	The requested access token. The calling web service can use this token to authenticate to the receiving web service.
access_type	Indicates the token type value. The only type that Azure AD supports is Bearer For more information about bearer tokens, see The OAuth 2.0 Authorization Framework: Bearer Token Usage (RFC 6750).
expires_in	How long the access token is valid (in seconds).
expires_on	The time when the access token expires. The date is represented as the number of seconds from 1970-01-01T0:0:0Z UTC until the expiration time. This value is used to determine the lifetime of cached tokens.
resource	The App ID URI of the receiving web service.

Example

The following example shows a success response to a request for an access token to a web service.
