Authorization code credential authentication

Source: R/credential-interactive.R
AuthCodeCredential.Rd

Authenticates a user through the OAuth 2.0 authorization code flow. This flow opens a web browser for the user to sign in.

Details

The authorization code flow is the standard OAuth 2.0 flow for interactive authentication. It requires a web browser and is suitable for applications where the user can interact with a browser window.

The credential supports token caching to avoid repeated authentication. Tokens can be cached to disk or in memory. A redirect URI is required for the OAuth flow to complete.

Examples

# AuthCodeCredential requires an interactive session
if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
# Create credential with default settings
cred <- AuthCodeCredential$new(
  tenant_id = "your-tenant-id",
  client_id = "your-client-id",
  scope = "https://management.azure.com/.default"
)

# Get an access token (will open browser for authentication)
token <- cred$get_token()

# Force reauthentication
token <- cred$get_token(reauth = TRUE)

# Use with httr2 request
req <- httr2::request("https://management.azure.com/subscriptions")
req <- cred$req_auth(req)
} # }
