How to get access token generated from Oauth 2.0 configured in appian

The idea of that connected system is, that it manages that token for you. What do you want to achieve?

Hi Stefan,

There is an application authorized using OAuth2.0 configuration with some other technology React JS,

It is passing the token for calling the integration/apis using the same token,

requirement is to generate the access token from same OAuth2.0 and pass this token to that application, so that they can continue

For this above requirement, we need to capture access token generated from this connected system configured in Appian,

How can i get this access token, I am able to authenticate but not able to capture the token, its not like calling integration in appian and connected system can directly pass this token to that integration.

I need to get the token from OAuth2.0 after it authenticates success fully.

Thanks

Appian does not support manual token management when using connected systems.

Besides security concerns by passing active tokens to other systems, you can implement the OAuth mechanism yourself by using the JWT plugins.

Hi Stefan,

Thanks for your prompt response.

I did not find any documentation stating that it's not possible to get the access token and This could be helpful for me, and I can see i can read token generated using POSTMAN

Please pardon me for this kind of request, I just wanted to be sure before presenting this to business.

Thanks,

I did not find any documentation stating that the OAuth token would be exposed.

Appian tries to provide a platform that is secure by design. As managing security tokens is a very sensitive area, I appreciate the design decision to not expose tokens.
