Step 15: Send authorize request
GET {{authPath}}/{{envID}}/as/authorize?client_id={{webApp4MfaId}}&response_type=code&response_mode=pi.flow&login_hint_token={{requestParam}}
The PingOne authorization endpoint /{{envID}}/as/authorize is used to interact with the resource owner and obtain an authorization grant. The authorization request must include values for the following properties:
-
client_idA string that specifies the application’s UUID, which was returned in Step 1.
-
response_typeA string that specifies the code or token type returned by an authorization request. For this activity, the value is
code. -
redirect_uriA string that specifies the URL that specifies the return entry point of the application. The
redirect_uriproperty value defined in Step 1 ishttps://example.com. -
login_hint_tokenA string that specifies a token that provides a way for the client to identify and authenticate the end-user without needing to encode the entire authentication request in a signed JWT.
Create the signed login_hint_token
To submit an MFA only authorize request, you must create a login_hint_token that provides the following user and application information in the JWT:
-
Environment ID: The environment ID for the environment associated with the user.
-
Application ID: The application to which the user is making the authorization request.
-
Application secret: The application’s secret.
-
User ID or username: The user ID or the username of the user.
