client-credentials

Provides the access token for Azure Active Directory (AAD) resources using client credentials.

Version 1.1.1

Exports the ClientCredentials class that provides the getAccessToken method. The mechanism by which the access token is obtained is described by the Service to Service Calls Using Client Credentials article.

1. Installation

``bash
$ npm install --save client-credentials
`

2. Usage

`javascript
const ClientCredentials = require('client-credentials');

const credentials = new ClientCredentials('my-company.com', 'client-id', 'client-secret');

credentials.getAccessToken('https://my-resource.com').then(token => {
console.log('Access Token', token);
})
`

You can request access tokens for any number of resources. The tokens are cached and refreshed automatically.

3. API

`javascript
ClientCredentials(tenant, clientId, clientSecret)
`

Creates a new ClientCredentials instance for the specified tenant. The clientId and the clientSecret must be for an AAD application that has access rights to the resource specified as the first parameter to the getAccessToken method.

$3

`javascript
getAccessToken(resource)
`

Gets the access token for the specified resource. If no token exists in the token cache, it is requested from the Microsoft login service at login.microsoftonline.com`. This method returns a promise that is resolved with the access token.
