Generating JWT for Target API

  • July 26, 2019

Hi,

I've followed the steps to generate JWT token from Adobe I/O and then exchange it with Access Token.

It's working as expected but the expiration of the token is set for 24 hours.

After 24 hours I need to generate a new JWT token and Access token.

Since I need to generate it every day is there a way to do it programmatically or ser a process to refresh it?

Thanks,

Sagi

    Hi Sagil - here is Python code to generate JWT token:

    # expiry time as 24 hours

    expiry_time = int(time.time()) + 60*60*24

    ims_host = 'ims-na1.adobelogin.com'

    ims_endpoint_jwt = '/ims/exchange/jwt/'

    # create payload

    payload = {

        'exp' : expiry_time,

        'iss' : <YOUR-ADOBE-ORG-ID>,

        'sub' : <YOUR-TEST-ACCOUNT-ID>,

        'https://ims-na1.adobelogin.com/s/ent_marketing_sdk': True,   

        'aud' : "https://" + ims_host + "/c/" + <API-KEY-OF-ADOBE-IO-INTEGRATION>

    }

    # Read the private key we will use to sign the JWT.

    priv_key_file = open(<PRIVATE-KEY-PATH>)

    priv_key = priv_key_file.read()

    priv_key_file.close()

    # create JSON Web Token, signing it with the private key.

    jwt_token = jwt.encode(payload, priv_key, algorithm='RS256')

    # decode bytes into string

    jwt_token = jwt_token.decode("utf-8")

    Hope this helps,

    Unfortunately for security purposes it needs to be re-generated every 24hrs.

        I'm trying to do this exact same thing but in C# .NET. You wouldn't happen to have an example for that as well?

        Hi All,

        I'm facing the same issue currently, I'm trying to generate token programmatically and followed the steps per the doc here: https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/experience-platform/tags/api/getting-started.html?lang=en#:~:text=Generate%20access%20tokens%20programmatically
        but I'm getting a 503: Service Unavailable response!
        Is it not available anymore or what?
