About this task

Use the GlideOAuthClient API to check if a personal OAuth token exists for the currently logged-in user. You can also use ScopedPersonalAuthAPI to get the personal OAuth token. For more information, see PersonalAuthAPI - Scoped.

Procedure

1. Use the following sample script to check for a personal access token associated with the current session user:

   function dumpToken(token) {
     if (token) {
       gs.info("Access token: " + token.getAccessToken());
       gs.info("Expires in: " + token.getExpiresIn());
       gs.info("Refresh token: " + token.getRefreshToken());
     }
   }
   
   var oAuthClient = new sn_auth.GlideOAuthClient();
   oAuthClient.setPersonal(true); // Returns the token for the logged-in user
   
   var token = oAuthClient.getToken('<credential_sys_id>', '<oauth_profile_sys_id>');
   dumpToken(token);

2. Replace <credential_sys_id> and <oauth_profile_sys_id> with the appropriate record values.
   The setPersonal(true) method confirms that the token returned belongs to the currently logged-in user.

   Note:

   For more information on the methods for requesting and revoking OAuth refresh and access tokens, see: Glide OAuth Client API Documentation.
