You can begin using our APIs after you've received your API credentials. Here you'll find instructions on how to begin the authentication process.

Authentication

Request API credentials by filling out the form below.

The Openforce API uses an OAuth2 authentication scheme. The Client Credentials Grant is the only supported oAuth2 Flow.

Requests to the API must be authenticated using a bearer token in the Authorization header.

Applications will obtain bearer tokens via the token endpoint: https://oforce.auth.us-west-2.amazoncognito.com/oauth2/token

When making a request to the token endpoint, the basic auth credentials must be a base64 encoded string in the format client_id:client_secret. These credentials can be obtained by using the Start button in the right sidebar.

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: application/json
