InteractiveBrowserCredential Class

Definition

A TokenCredential implementation which launches the system default browser to interactively authenticate a user and obtain an access token. The browser will only be launched to authenticate the user once, then will silently acquire access tokens through the user's refresh token as long as it's valid. For usage instructions, see Interactive browser authentication.

Methods

Authenticate(CancellationToken)

Interactively authenticates a user via the default browser.

Authenticate(TokenRequestContext, CancellationToken)

Interactively authenticates a user via the default browser. The resulting AuthenticationRecord will automatically be used in subsequent calls to GetToken(TokenRequestContext, CancellationToken).

AuthenticateAsync(CancellationToken)

Interactively authenticates a user via the default browser. The resulting AuthenticationRecord will automatically be used in subsequent calls to GetTokenAsync(TokenRequestContext, CancellationToken).

AuthenticateAsync(TokenRequestContext, CancellationToken)

Interactively authenticates a user via the default browser.

GetToken(TokenRequestContext, CancellationToken)

Silently obtains an AccessToken for a user account if the user has already authenticated. Otherwise, the default browser is launched to authenticate the user. Acquired tokens are cached by the credential instance. Token lifetime and refreshing is handled automatically. Where possible, reuse credential instances to optimize cache effectiveness.

GetTokenAsync(TokenRequestContext, CancellationToken)

Silently obtains an AccessToken for a user account if the user has already authenticated. Otherwise, the default browser is launched to authenticate the user. Acquired tokens are cached by the credential instance. Token lifetime and refreshing is handled automatically. Where possible, reuse credential instances to optimize cache effectiveness.
