How to use access token with Organization service?

Posted on by Community Member

I have a mobile application (Java), and recently I have managed to implement retrieving an access token for one of my accounts via OAuth2.

How should I use it with SOAP Organization service? If I have this access token, how can I retrieve the Endpoint Address?

I used to put credentials "cipher value" to xml headers, how can I switch to token now? Where should I put it?

You should use it with the Web Api.

https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg327838.aspx

"Once you have the access token, you must set the Authorization header of the message request that you are sending to the web service to the access token value and specify the token type of “ Bearer”."

The Soap Endpoint will be deprecated:

https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn281891.aspx

"The 2011 endpoint will be removed some time after the release of Dynamics 365 version 9. We plan to provide updates to the Dynamics 365 SDK assemblies and tools over the next several minor releases, retargeting them to use the Web API instead of the 2011 endpoint."

When I'm using web API, it returns 401 Unauthorized, though I set Authorization Header to "Bearer <token>"

byte[] bytesEncoded = Base64.encodeBase64(token.getBytes()); Map<String, String > headers = new ArrayMap<String, String>(); headers.put("Authorization", "Bearer " + bytesEncoded); headers.put("OData-Version", "4.0"); headers.put("OData-MaxVersion", "4.0"); headers.put("Accept", "application/json"); Request request = new Request.Builder().url("https://<my_crm_url>/api/data/v9.0/WhoAmI").headers(Headers.of(headers)).build(); try{ response = new OkHttpClient().newCall(request).execute(); statusCode = response.code(); } ...

Actually, I try to access CRM On-Premise with simple Basic Authentication headers, but they too return 401.

Here's the code for CRM on-Premise:

String credentials = Credentials.basic(<username>, <password>); Map<String, String > headers = new ArrayMap<String, String>(); headers.put("Authorization", credentials); headers.put("Accept", "application/json"); Request request = new Request.Builder().url("<link to on-premise crm>/api/data/v8.2/").headers(Headers.of(headers)).build(); try{ response = new OkHttpClient().newCall(request).execute(); statusCode = response.code(); } ...
