Complete the Client Information tab to store the data of an external client that you want to connect to your Pega Platform application by using the client credentials grant type in OAuth 2.0.

Client Credentials

This section contains the credentials that are generated when you register the client.

Field

Description

Client ID

Unique ID that is assigned to the client.

Client secret

Password that is assigned to the client.

Access token endpoint The request URL that you can access to receive an access token for the client as a response after authentication. Your REST service authenticates the client by using the client ID and client secret.
Token revocation endpoint The request URL that you can access. After authentication, you can revoke an already issued access token for the client. When the token is revoked, the system returns an HTTP status code 200 as a response, and all subsequent requests that the client sends by using the token result in an error.

Grant types

In this section you select the grant types that you want to support.

 

Field

Description

Client Credentials

Select this check box to choose an operator that your application uses to authorize the OAuth 2.0 client.

Operator ID

Unique ID that is assigned to the operator.

Caution: This operator must not represent a human user who can log in to the system. The operator must be reserved for an OAuth 2.0 client that wants to access resources in the Pega Platform. You can modify the scope of the operator's access group to allow the client to access selective resources in the Pega Platform.

SAML2-bearer Select this check box to use a SAML assertion to authorize the OAuth 2.0 client in your application.
Identity mapping

Extracts the information from the SAML assertion and converts it to the OAuth 2.0 access token.

Advanced options

Field

Description

Token lifetime in seconds

Enter the time period in seconds for which an access token will be valid for the client. This value must be a positive integer. The default value is 3600 seconds.
