How we built Sendpulse/Axosoft/Clientjoy (Basic auth with Access Response Token based Integrations)

Pabbly Connect Supports following types of authentications under Basic Auth with Access Token authentication method.

1. OAuth 2.0 - Grant Type: Client Credential. (E.g. Sendpulse)
2. OAuth 2.0 - Grant Type: Password. (E.g. Axosoft)
3. Custom Access Token Generation via API. (E.g. Clientjoy)
(Some applications generate an access token using an API endpoint.)

i.e. subdomain.axosoft.com/api/oauth2/token

Access Token Response:

{
"access_token" : "10101010-1010-1010-1010-101010101010",
"token_type" : "bearer",
"data" : {
"id" : 7,
"first_name" : "Cathy",
"last_name" : "O'Reilly (Dev)",
"email" : "[email protected]"
}
}

Token Key Name (Received): Enter a token key name that you want to receive from the access token JSON for further use in API request e.g. access_token.

Token Key Name (Send): Enter a token key name that you want to send for further use in an API request e.g. access_token.

Now, this access token will be passed in the header in each action and trigger automatically.

In the above image, you can check that we have selected the auth type as Basic Auth (Access Response Token). As per the CLientjoy API docs, request body type is JSON and origin is passed in header.


We followed the Clientjoy API docs for selecting the Auth type as Basic auth (Access Response Token).

You can find the Access Token path from the Access Token API response, you have to send a POST request to the Clientjoy access token URL.
i.e. https://api.clientjoy.io/v1/auth/login

Access Token Response:

{
  "success": "register.user",
  "success_message": "Great going! Your account is created.",
  "status": "register.user",
  "message": "Great going! Your account is created.",
  "data": {
    "user": {
      "id": 5155,
      "first_name": "Jigar",
      "last_name": "Sompura",
      "name": "Jigar Sompura",
      "email": "[email protected]"
    },
    "token": "*****"
  }
}

In the above Access token response "token" is at the nested JSON. So we need to input the path of the token as data==>token

Token Key Name (Received): Enter a token key name that you want to receive from the access token JSON for further use in API request e.g. access_token.

In this case Token Key Name (Received) is data==>token

Token Key Name (Send): Enter a token key name that you want to send for further use in an API request e.g. access_token.

Now, this access token will be passed in the header in each action and trigger automatically.
