Which authorization grant to use with Client Application integrations

[eparis]

Hello.

I am developing a web app that will run as an embedded app in Genesys using the client application integration. This app needs to authenticate the user currently logged in to the Genesys platform.

Which type of authorization grant would you recommend using in this situation and why? I am developing the app in Django (Python), so preferably a solution that uses the python SDK.

Thank you for the support.

Hi eparis,

Take a look at the Integration Guide if you haven't already. You may find the Authorization section particularly helpful. If you're using Python for your app, I would suggest using the Authorization Code Grant since there is server side code making the API requests and you're authenticating as a human. Also, checkout the Authorization Code Grant Python SDK example.

Thanks,

Mike
