The User Access Token API call is an open-ended question for a specific user, returning the list of allowed assets and their associated actions for a specific application. The API presents a generic request based primarily on the Identity and will return all requested Assets and Actions that are configured for this user in a single token. This API enables the scope to cache the list of authorized Assets for a user within the Application session, thus reducing the overall performance involved in enforcing access.

Notice

When accessing the Authorization APIs, the URL base/prefix, according to your PlainID PDP Location

United States Cloud PDP - `https://tenant-name.us1.plainid.io`
Canadian Cloud PDP - `https://tenant-name.ca1.plainid.io`
European Cloud PDP - `https://tenant-name.eu1.plainid.io`
Local PAA - `https://your-paa.acme.local`

For more information on which Asset Types to use with your PAA or Cloud PDP, refer to Managing Asset Types.

Environmental parameters need to be defined in policies as request. (in asset rules or conditions) and also sent in the authorization request. Only the assets that match what will be sent in the request will come back.

If not defined, parametes based on emviromental data will not be considered in the Access Decision.

string

Array

remoteIp

string (ipv4)

IP address to be used when validating a policy. Ensure that your IP Ranges are correct based on an IP calculator.

If not defined, the IP considered in the calculation is taken from the X-Forwarded-For (Request header).
