creating adobe access token in a headless action

[Urs_Boller]

I try to create an adobe access token in a headless action. first I tryed to use aio-lib-ims but this fails to include in the action (maybe an issue with the core library and their dependencies?)

is there any easy way to create an adobe access token having all data in the .env file?

Hi @Urs_Boller , thanks for the issue report. We have an github issue for tracking purpose here: https://github.com/adobe/aio-lib-ims/issues/55. We are prioritizing the fix and will update here when it is fixed.

Hi @Urs_Boller, @oliverf82757722 - a new version of @adobe/aio-lib-ims has been released, which fixes the issue reported earlier. I was able to get the token using this code.

const { context, getToken } = require('@adobe/aio-lib-ims')
const config = {
      client_id: params.client_id,
      client_secret: params.client_secret,
      technical_account_email: params.technical_account_email,
      technical_account_id: params.technical_account_id,
      meta_scopes: [
        'ent_campaign_sdk'
      ],
      ims_org_id: params.ims_org_id,
      private_key: params.private_key
    };
    await context.set('my_acs', config)
    await context.setCurrent('my_acs')
    
    // get JWT access token
    const token = await getToken()

    // initialize the sdk
    const campaignClient = await CampaignStandard.init(params.tenant, params.client_id, token)

Please note that, for the value of private key, you could pass a string in this format: "-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----\nmy\nprivate\nkey\n-----END PRIVATE KEY-----".

@duypnguyen @duypnguyen I am following the code above and I am getting ->Cannot resolve module "@adobe/aio-lib-ims". Basically , the issue comes fromrequire('@adobe/aio-lib-ims'); I am implementing that inside ->'use strict'; module.exports = async function () {} Any siuggestion?

[duypnguyen]

@Luca_Lattarini - could you try adding this `@adobe/aio-lib-ims` to the list of dependencies in package.json file, then `npm install`, and redeploy your app?
