Class ServiceAccountCredential (1.55.0)

public class ServiceAccountCredential : ServiceCredential, IHttpExecuteInterceptor, IHttpUnsuccessfulResponseHandler, IOidcTokenProvider, IGoogleCredential, ICredential, IConfigurableHttpClientInitializer, ITokenAccessWithHeaders, ITokenAccess, IBlobSigner

Google OAuth 2.0 credential for accessing protected resources using an access token. The Google OAuth 2.0 Authorization Server supports server-to-server interactions such as those between a web application and Google Cloud Storage. The requesting application has to prove its own identity to gain access to an API, and an end-user doesn't have to be involved.

Take a look in https://developers.google.com/accounts/docs/OAuth2ServiceAccount for more details.

Since version 1.9.3, service account credential also supports JSON Web Token access token scenario. In this scenario, instead of sending a signed JWT claim to a token server and exchanging it for an access token, a locally signed JWT claim bound to an appropriate URI is used as an access token directly. See GetAccessTokenForRequestAsync(String, CancellationToken) for explanation when JWT access token is used and when regular OAuth2 token is used.

Methods

CreateSignature(Byte[])

public string CreateSignature(byte[] data)

Creates a base64 encoded signature for the SHA-256 hash of the specified data.

Parameter
NameDescription
dataByte[]

The data to hash and sign. Must not be null.

Returns
TypeDescription
String

The base-64 encoded signature.

FromServiceAccountData(Stream)

public static ServiceAccountCredential FromServiceAccountData(Stream credentialData)

Creates a new ServiceAccountCredential instance from JSON credential data.

Parameter
NameDescription
credentialDataStream

The stream from which to read the JSON key data for a service account. Must not be null.

Returns
TypeDescription
ServiceAccountCredential

The credentials parsed from the service account key data.

Exceptions
TypeDescription
InvalidOperationException

The credentialData does not contain valid JSON service account key data.

GetAccessTokenForRequestAsync(String, CancellationToken)

public override Task<string> GetAccessTokenForRequestAsync(string authUri = null, CancellationToken cancellationToken = default(CancellationToken))

Gets an access token to authorize a request. If this credential has Scopes associated, but UseJwtAccessWithScopes is false, an OAuth2 access token obtained from TokenServerUrl will be returned. Otherwise, a locally signed JWT will be returned. The signed JWT will contain a "scope" claim with the scopes in Scopes if there are any, otherwise it will contain an "aud" claim with authUri. A cached token is used if possible and the token is only refreshed once it's close to its expiry.

Parameters
NameDescription
authUriString

The URI the returned token will grant access to. Should be specified if no Scopes have been specified for the credential.

cancellationTokenCancellationToken

The cancellation token.

Returns
TypeDescription
Task<String>

The access token.

Overrides

GetOidcTokenAsync(OidcTokenOptions, CancellationToken)

public Task<OidcToken> GetOidcTokenAsync(OidcTokenOptions options, CancellationToken cancellationToken = default(CancellationToken))

Returns an OIDC token for the given options.

Parameters
NameDescription
optionsOidcTokenOptions

The options to create the token from.

cancellationTokenCancellationToken

The cancellation token that may be used to cancel the request.

Returns
TypeDescription
Task<OidcToken>

The OIDC token.

RequestAccessTokenAsync(CancellationToken)

public override Task<bool> RequestAccessTokenAsync(CancellationToken taskCancellationToken)
Parameter
NameDescription
taskCancellationTokenCancellationToken

Cancellation token to cancel operation.

Returns
TypeDescription
Task<Boolean>

true if a new token was received successfully.

Overrides

SignBlobAsync(Byte[], CancellationToken)

public Task<string> SignBlobAsync(byte[] blob, CancellationToken cancellationToken = default(CancellationToken))

Returns the base64 encoded signature of the given blob.

Parameters
NameDescription
blobByte[]

The blob to sign.

cancellationTokenCancellationToken

The cancellation token.

Returns
TypeDescription
Task<String>

The base64 encoded signature.

WithUseJwtAccessWithScopes(Boolean)

public ServiceAccountCredential WithUseJwtAccessWithScopes(bool useJwtAccessWithScopes)

Constructs a new instance of the ServiceAccountCredential but with the given UseJwtAccessWithScopes value.

Parameter
NameDescription
useJwtAccessWithScopesBoolean

A flag preferring use of self-signed JWTs over OAuth tokens when OAuth scopes are explicitly set.

Returns
TypeDescription
ServiceAccountCredential

A new instance of the ServiceAccountCredential but with the given UseJwtAccessWithScopes value.
