In the password grant type, the user provides their resource server credentials (username/password) to the client, which sends across an access token request to the API management. This grant type is ideally used when the request is generated from a reliable source.

After configuring the  OAuth Token End Point policy, provide the following parameters in the Postman and click the Send button to get the access token:

  • Method: POST.
  • URL: Project proxy URL.
  • Query Parameters:
    • grant_type: Password.
    • form-urlencoded parameters:
      • username: The resource owner username.
      • password: The resource owner password.
  • scope: The possible scope or list of permissions that are requested. This parameter is OPTIONAL. Example: READ,WRITE etc.
