PingOne Platform APIs

Get an ID Token

This activity shows you how to get an ID token. Refer to Access tokens and ID tokens for more information.

The following operations are supported by the PingOne APIs:

  • Create an application

  • Create a population

  • Create a user

  • Create a user password

  • Initiate an authorize request

  • Use flow APIs to complete the login

Prerequisites

Get an access token from the worker application that you created in Create an admin Worker app connection. To get a token from a different worker application in an alternate sandbox environment, run the token request endpoint using the client ID and client secret of your chosen worker app to authenticate the request. For more information, refer to Get a PingOne admin access token.

Workflow order of operations

To get an ID token, you must complete the following tasks:

  1. Make a POST request to /environments/{{envID}}/applications to add a new application to the specified environment.

  2. Make a POST request to /environments/{{envID}}/populations to create a new population resource.

  3. Make a POST request to /environments/{{envID}}/users to create a user to assign to the new population resource.

  4. Make a PUT request to /environments/{{envID}}/users/{{userID}}/password to set the new user’s password.

  5. Make a GET request to /{{envID}}/as/authorize to obtain an authorization grant. This request starts the authorization flow.

  6. Make a GET request to /{{envID}}/flows/{{flowID}} to initiate the sign-on flow.

  7. Make a POST request to /{{envID}}/flows/{{flowID}} and provide the user’s login credentials.

  8. Make a GET request to /{{envID}}/as/resume?flowId={{flowID}} to call the resume endpoint and return the auth code.
