OAUTH2 Connection over MID Server with grant_type:password possible?

Hi,

we need to establish a connection via the MID server with OAUTH2 Auth.
The client secret, the ID and username as well as passowrd are transferred.
we have found the following:
https://support.servicenow.com/kb?id=kb_article_view&sysparm_article=KB1645211

 

However, there is a UI policy.
Which hides the check box use_mid for all other grant types except client credentials.
However, this is not clear from the KB article.
Anyone have an idea or already built one?

Hello @Meloper 

 

I believe the point#5 of this KB should be rephrased as:

The ‘Use MID Server’ option is only available when the grant type is set to ‘Client Credentials.’ If you select another grant type (such as Password or Authorization Code), the option will be hidden due to a UI policy.

 


Hope that helps!
