Interactive credential base class

Base class for interactive authentication credentials. This class should not be instantiated directly; use DeviceCodeCredential or AuthCodeCredential instead.

Super class

azr::Credential -> InteractiveCredential

Public fields

use_refresh_token

Logical indicating whether to use the login flow (acquire tokens via refresh token exchange).

interactive

Logical indicating whether this credential requires user interaction.

Method new()

Shared initializer for interactive credentials

Usage

InteractiveCredential$new(
  scope = NULL,
  tenant_id = NULL,
  client_id = NULL,
  use_cache = "disk",
  offline = TRUE,
  interactive = TRUE,
  use_refresh_token = TRUE,
  flow_fun,
  req_auth_fun,
  oauth_endpoint,
  name,
  extra_flow_params = list()
)

Arguments

scope

A character string specifying the OAuth2 scope.

tenant_id

Azure AD tenant ID.

client_id

Application (client) ID.

use_cache

Cache type: "disk" or "memory".

offline

Whether to request offline access (refresh tokens).

interactive

Whether this credential requires user interaction.

use_refresh_token

Whether to use the login flow (acquire tokens via refresh token exchange). Set to FALSE to use the access token flow directly.

flow_fun

The httr2 OAuth flow function (e.g. httr2::oauth_flow_device).

req_auth_fun

The httr2 request auth function (e.g. httr2::req_oauth_device).

oauth_endpoint

The OAuth endpoint name passed to the parent credential.

name

The credential name passed to the parent credential.

extra_flow_params

A named list of additional parameters merged into private$.flow_params after scope and auth_url.

---

Method is_interactive()

Check if the credential requires user interaction

Usage

InteractiveCredential$is_interactive()

Returns

Logical indicating whether this credential is interactive

---

Method get_token()

Get an access token using the flow configured by the subclass. Attempts token acquisition in three steps: (1) return a valid cached token without any interaction; (2) silently refresh using an existing refresh token; (3) fall back to the configured interactive flow. When reauth = TRUE all three steps are skipped and the interactive flow is used directly.

Usage

InteractiveCredential$get_token(scope = NULL, reauth = FALSE)

Arguments

scope

A character string specifying the OAuth2 scope. Defaults to NULL, which uses the scope configured on the credential.

reauth

A logical value indicating whether to force reauthentication, bypassing the cache and silent refresh. Defaults to FALSE.

Returns

An httr2::oauth_token() object containing the access token

---

Method req_auth()

Add OAuth authentication to an httr2 request using the flow configured by the subclass

Usage

InteractiveCredential$req_auth(req)

Arguments

req

An httr2::request() object

Returns

The request object with OAuth authentication configured

---

Method clone()

The objects of this class are cloneable with this method.

Usage

InteractiveCredential$clone(deep = FALSE)

Arguments

deep

Whether to make a deep clone.
