Device Authorization Endpoint

The device authorization endpoint can be used to request device and user codes. This endpoint is used to start the device flow authorization process.

  • client_id

    client identifier (required)

  • client_secret

    client secret either in the post body, or as a basic authentication header. Optional.

  • scope

    one or more registered scopes. If not specified, a token for all explicitly allowed scopes will be issued

POST /connect/deviceauthorization
client_id=client1&
client_secret=secret&
scope=openid api1

You can use the Duende IdentityModel client library to programmatically interact with the protocol endpoint from .NET code.

using Duende.IdentityModel.Client;
var client = new HttpClient();
var response = await client.RequestDeviceAuthorizationAsync(new DeviceAuthorizationRequest
{
Address = "https://demo.duendesoftware.com/connect/device_authorize",
ClientId = "device"
});
