getToken: Get a 2-Legged Token for Authentication.

In AutoDeskR: An Interface to the 'AutoDesk' 'API' Platform

Get a 2-Legged Token for Authentication.

Description

Get a 2-legged token for OAuth-based authentication to the AutoDesk Platform Services (APS).

Usage

getToken(id = NULL, secret = NULL, scope = "data:write data:read")

Arguments

id	A string. Client ID for the app generated from the AutoDesk Dev Portal.
secret	A string. Client Secret for the app generated from the AutoDesk Dev Portal.
scope	A string. Space-separated list of required scopes. May be user-profile:read, data:read, data:write, data:create, data:search, bucket:create, bucket:read, bucket:update, bucket:delete, code:all, account:read, account:write, or a combination of these.

Value

An aps_token object containing the access_token, token_type, expires_in, and expires_at. The token can be passed directly to other AutoDeskR functions. Use is_expired to check whether the token needs refreshing. Legacy access via resp$content$access_token continues to work.
