GETTING STARTED

Access tokens

2min

Pathfix is an end to end OAuth solution that also handles the entire Token Management System including Tokens to and from the service provider.

Note: the following tokens are handled entirely by Pathfix and you do not need to do any of this.



The tokens and requet handling includes the following:

Request Token

Connect with the application to Request token maintaining all Request parameters as set by each service provider. On successful connection, application will return a Request Token with the relevant Response parameters.



Exchange Token Request with Access Token

The received Request Token will be exchanged for an Access Token with the service provider who will grant an Access Token and Token Secret

On Authorization received from the application, Pathfix will store the Tokens in encrypted storage servers and maintain the connection across all integrated applications for the user.



Communication and Payload Handling

All Payload will be stamped with relevant token and sent to the service provider. Payload and response will be sent back to your SaaS



Pathfix handles all of this for you. You will have complete control and flexibility on what type of integration you offer your users without managing any servers, framework or token management system.



Access Token Extraction

We manage all tokens for a connected user. Tokens received from a provider are encrypted and stored securely by Pathfix.

Tokens cannot be extracted and shared for any connected user. This allows us to maintain security of connected accounts.
