Actionstep supports the Authorization grant type only (other methods may be introduced in the future). The Authorization grant type requires the client to direct the end-user to Actionstep's API authorization page. This will be followed by a second page where the end-user will authorize the client to access their system based on the specified scope.  

...

The scope can either be set server-side, or on a request-by-request basis. Before granting access to the client application, the end-user will be shown the scope for which the client application is requesting access.

Tokens

Access Tokens have a 30 60 minute lifespan and can easily be renewed via the OAuth2 token endpoint by using a Refresh Token which has a 14 21 day lifespan. A Refresh Token is returned with every Access Token issued.

Our OAuth2 endpoints are (for live production systems only):

https://go.actionstep.com/api/oauth/authorize

https://api.actionstep.com/api/oauth/token

Our OAuth2 endpoints are (for development systems only):

https://go.actionstepstaging.com/api/oauth/authorize

https://api.actionstepactionstepstaging.com/api/oauth/token

Obtaining Actionstep API Credentials

If you would like to connect to the API please contact support@actionstep.com with the details of your proposal. We will evaluate your proposal for suitability and check to see that the API can perform the functions you need. Once approved you will receive your API credentials to a test API environment where you can develop your application. When it is ready for release we will provide you with production API keys. If you require technical assistance during your API development this can be provided on a professional services basis, subject to availability and timing.
