OAuth¶

The OAuth endpoint is used by third-party applications to obtain or refresh an access token (access_token). Once you have the token, subsequent business endpoints accept it through any of the methods described in Authentication.

This endpoint is not on the API domain and has no /api/v5 version prefix, which is the biggest difference from the other groups in this documentation.

Objects¶

Identification method¶

• The endpoint is fixed: POST https://atomgit.com/oauth/token (note that the host is atomgit.com, not api.atomgit.com).
• The grant type, client credentials, and returned fields are passed as described in the parameter table on the specific endpoint page.

Common tasks¶

Notes¶

• The path belongs to a different family from the other endpoints: it has no /api/v5 prefix and the host is not api.atomgit.com. When you build the path by hand with curl, it is easy to write https://api.atomgit.com/oauth/token, which fails.
• This endpoint handles a single action, "obtain or refresh": the initial exchange and later refreshes use the same endpoint.
• For how to call APIs once you have the token (Authorization: Bearer, the PRIVATE-TOKEN header, or the access_token query parameter), see Authentication.
