 Authentication token request

The authentication request for accessing the BimPlus resource should be sent in the JSON format using the OIDC Authorization service. The registered user name and password in the

For example, you can enable the OAuth 2.0 authentication process directly in your REST-client and it will automatically create and refresh tokens when needed.

It is recommended to use browser UI to login and logout with OIDC server. For this process, you can specify discovery URL and retrieve JSON with latest settings there.

Received token should be directly used to access BimPlus resources after receiving it from OIDC. Refreshing and revoking of the tokens are also managed by OIDC, not BimPlus. Old authentication service in BimPlus remains only for backward compatibility and will be removed in 2026.

Please, use the client_id from the request and regenerate the token (using the same API call with client_id as the additional parameter) for having the possibility to login multiple times at the same time. For more information, see here
