OpenID Connect Implicit Client Profile

This section provides information about the expected requests and the relevant responses that the WSO2 Identity Server would generate for the OpenID Connect Implicit Client flow.

Register a service provider

To register your application as a service provider in the WSO2 Identity Server:

  1. Log in to the WSO2 Identity Server Management Console using administrator credentials.

  2. Go to Main > Identity > Service Providers > Add.

  3. Enter a Service Provider Name. Optionally, enter a Description.

  4. Click Register.

Configure the service provider

Make the following changes to the created service provider.

  1. Expand Inbound Authentication Configuration > OAuth/OpenID Connect Configuration and click Configure.

  2. Enter the Callback Url.

    Note

    The Callback Url is the exact location in the service provider's application to which an access token will be sent. This URL should be the URL of the page that the user is redirected to after successful authentication.

  3. Click Add. Note the OAuth Client Key and OAuth Client Secret that appear.

Tip

To configure more advanced configurations, see OAuth/OpenID Connect Configurations.

Try out the flows

Let's try out the different OIDC hybrid flows by specifyin the following response types in the authorization request.

Get id token

  1. Send the following request using a browser-based application.

    Request Format 

    https://<host>:<port>/oauth2/authorize?response_type=id_token&client_id=<oauth_client_key>&redirect_uri=<callback_url>&nonce=<nonce_value>&scope=openid

    Sample Request 

    https://localhost:9443/oauth2/authorize?response_type=id_token&client_id=NgTICXFPYnt7ETUm6Fc8NMU8K38a&redirect_uri=http://localhost:8080/playground2/oauth2client&nonce=abc&scope=openid

    Note

    The nonce value is a mandatory to receive an Id Token.

  2. You will receive the following response upon successful authorization.

    Resonse Format 

    <callback_url>#id_token=<id_token>

    Sample Response 

    http://localhost:8080/playground2/oauth2client#id_token=eyJ4NXQiOiJNell4TW1Ga09HWXdNV0kwWldObU5EY3hOR1l3WW1NNFpUQTNNV0kyTkRBelpHUXpOR00wWkdSbE5qSmtPREZrWkRSaU9URmtNV0ZoTXpVMlpHVmxOZyIsImtpZCI6Ik16WXhNbUZrT0dZd01XSTBaV05tTkRjeE5HWXdZbU00WlRBM01XSTJOREF6WkdRek5HTTBaR1JsTmpKa09ERmtaRFJpT1RGa01XRmhNelUyWkdWbE5nX1JTMjU2IiwiYWxnIjoiUlMyNTYifQ.eyJpc2siOiJkODM1YmE4ZjIxNjdmNGJiNDg1OGQzMmVmNmNmYzdmYmZiMWEyNzExYzA0YTA5ZmZjMTk3MjQ4ZWMyNjg5ZmNhIiwiYXVkIjoiQ1Z5UWVNNVAzM2dmTjgwdnVyM05jeHpQZ0h3YSIsInN1YiI6ImFkbWluIiwiYXpwIjoiQ1Z5UWVNNVAzM2dmTjgwdnVyM05jeHpQZ0h3YSIsImFtciI6WyJCYXNpY0F1dGhlbnRpY2F0b3IiXSwiaXNzIjoiaHR0cHM6XC9cL2xvY2FsaG9zdDo5NDQzXC9vYXV0aDJcL3Rva2VuIiwiZXhwIjoxNjE1ODc1OTg0LCJpYXQiOjE2MTU4NzIzODQsIm5vbmNlIjoiYWJjIn0.iHkj_Ve1wiYeYATGyt4nd3ko0b0X73Dah2AzgHBtnQJeQtXoo3dxgPTIFcgfrs9lpCCoDmQeZB-I-PUp6rXAPCY0Sen8u1tCs-VfuamOgeIxlvKY7AqGMjA7dOUO66GVtHs0M3WMzeNS22esZr4GbtgZi3Po5GkUqsctUHKVcfSJr0J2JaaGUSap8d1NoJNyxkwu5wD6AA78NjTN-iqxusdjJQSpZFXBnZU99qfnNB0kxK5hc44SlntkQ-o2oBTWSlhDAzXm3kjp-eOdoBWoReSvGHqHqawxRMXiZL_UT80l7F6QQ9UgxXOqdfuL5gzt5fEz9ftwpZfjp0Sm3quQHw&session_state=a68c4f52124d15131f944c201e57d3eebbff0f5154f8503214c688c52f8963b3.6DPeIkygVpE7VTHtKrfbLw

    Given below is the Base64 decoded value of the Id Token:

    {
  "isk": "d835ba8f2167f4bb4858d32ef6cfc7fbfb1a2711c04a09ffc197248ec2689fca",
  "aud": "CVyQeM5P33gfN80vur3NcxzPgHwa",
  "sub": "admin",
  "azp": "CVyQeM5P33gfN80vur3NcxzPgHwa",
  "amr": [
    "BasicAuthenticator"
  ],
  "iss": "https://localhost:9443/oauth2/token",
  "exp": 1615875984,
  "iat": 1615872384,
  "nonce": "abc"
}

    Info

    The Id Token does not contain the at_hash value because no access token is generated. An access token is required to calculate the at_hash value.

Get access token and id token

  1. Send the following request using a browser-based application.

    Request Format 

    https://<host>:<port>/oauth2/authorize?response_type=id_token token&client_id=<oauth_client_key>&redirect_uri=<callback_url>&nonce=<nonce_value>&scope=openid

    Sample Request 

    https://localhost:9443/oauth2/authorize?response_type=id_token token&client_id=NgTICXFPYnt7ETUm6Fc8NMU8K38a&redirect_uri=http://wso2is.local:8080/playground2/oauth2client&nonce=abc&scope=openid

    Note

    The nonce value is a mandatory to receive an Id Token.

  2. You will receive the following sample response upon successful authorization. Note that both the access token and the ID Token are returned to the client.

    Response Format 

    <callback_url>#access_token=<access_token>&id_token=<id_token>

    Sample Response 

    http://wso2is.local:8080/playground2/oauth2client#access_token=80c7c0d7-070a-38ff-a1f4-d21a444cdb67&id_token=eyJ4NXQiOiJNell4TW1Ga09HWXdNV0kwWldObU5EY3hOR1l3WW1NNFpUQTNNV0kyTkRBelpHUXpOR00wWkdSbE5qSmtPREZrWkRSaU9URmtNV0ZoTXpVMlpHVmxOZyIsImtpZCI6Ik16WXhNbUZrT0dZd01XSTBaV05tTkRjeE5HWXdZbU00WlRBM01XSTJOREF6WkdRek5HTTBaR1JsTmpKa09ERmtaRFJpT1RGa01XRmhNelUyWkdWbE5nX1JTMjU2IiwiYWxnIjoiUlMyNTYifQ.eyJpc2siOiI5YWI1MzhiZDIxNDhmMmFhMTdlMmUxZTA1YzliMWQwOGQ2NGY0ZjIwYzk5YmViNTBhYmJhNDRlMjgzZjhlNTRmIiwiYXRfaGFzaCI6IncwUG1fVFp4TlFfQTBRUU91RjJESUEiLCJhdWQiOiJDVnlRZU01UDMzZ2ZOODB2dXIzTmN4elBnSHdhIiwic3ViIjoiYWRtaW4iLCJhenAiOiJDVnlRZU01UDMzZ2ZOODB2dXIzTmN4elBnSHdhIiwiYW1yIjpbIkJhc2ljQXV0aGVudGljYXRvciJdLCJpc3MiOiJodHRwczpcL1wvbG9jYWxob3N0Ojk0NDNcL29hdXRoMlwvdG9rZW4iLCJleHAiOjE2MTU4NzY4MjUsImlhdCI6MTYxNTg3MzIyNSwibm9uY2UiOiJhYmMifQ.Z3HbYG0tBu30X5BYJ9hvCGQ9O8wUGXC6GWz3e9xQJHqu15AuRIcM2zbkvbHc-pul5DdwmqfU-R8Ilkp9e0fgrAOOtPCoSRqKO8yNeXhOQ0pj8HBQtLgB9iys3HzL-HPcIolMVNv6VWEhMBP253JXo-7n1DvLJqHE0Q5xK7W8BwudTh5kd0NNl6PEud0aaBJChETdMG231bpHEGCmJMhAkb9WsZyztvkuMVsAt50uRMG1DX0gMOKW1ZcAMAe_z3RdADXVMGu1VZ5HNUoTBl8VosHOFGwrcpndoxiyGAkWIhj7kdQ1AZVUse1RlKH9IW2AZI7VXkPvnU-tmcXCsIJsKg&token_type=Bearer&expires_in=3599&session_state=a49751e21bf6fbf8624cffa0904fd77706c48a09ae187672e4dd09cab84d9e9f.G_NOFmMsySRgYgkmQizt6g
