Need to bypass SSO for oAuth token generation

I have an external system that needs to make REST calls into my ServiceNow instance.  We've set up BASIC auth and verified everything works.  I am trying to swap BASIC for oAuth and have created an oAuth 2.0.  I have created an oAuth 2.0 client and provided the token generation URL to the other system's admin.

 

The issue we're having is that our instance is using SSO, and the service account (ServiceNow user) I have given them to use is not in our SSO directory, so to generate the token, they need to log in locally (side door or login.do).  Any ideas on how to get around the SSO login page and allow them to enter a local username and password?

Hi @John Tomko 

 

If Basic Authentication is working properly, I don't think any advantages of opting oAuth 2.0. Can you help me with the use case of it for better understanding?

 

Regards,

Amit
