Hello Community!
Following the release of the Part 1 video a few days ago, the Part 2 video on the Basics of UiPath Data Service APIs has dropped on my YouTube channel.
The video will cover another set of the following fundamental concepts:
- Limitations of a one time API Access token fetched using OAuth 2 request
- Using Postman API client to make an OAuth authorization call to request for a Refresh token instead of a one time API token
- Use the refresh token in a simpler HTTP POST request (unlike an elaborate OAuth request) to get new Access token and Refresh token
- Demonstrate how a sustained Request/Response cycle could be maintained between an API client and the Data Service API end point
Reference topics for this video:
- UiPath Data Service User Guide - Introduction
- UiPath Data Service API documentation home page - API Access
- The Postman UiPath Connector guide- UiPath Connector Guide
- Open source PKCE generator - Online PKCE Generator Tool
