# @aws-sdk/client-sso-oidc ## Description AWS SDK for JavaScript SSOOIDC Client for Node.js, Browser and React Native.

IAM Identity Center OpenID Connect (OIDC) is a web service that enables a client (such as CLI or a native application) to register with IAM Identity Center. The service also enables the client to fetch the user’s access token upon successful authentication and authorization with IAM Identity Center.

IAM Identity Center uses the `sso` and `identitystore` API namespaces.

Considerations for Using This Guide

Before you begin using this guide, we recommend that you first review the following important information about how the IAM Identity Center OIDC service works.

- The IAM Identity Center OIDC service currently implements only the portions of the OAuth 2.0 Device Authorization Grant standard (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8628) that are necessary to enable single sign-on authentication with the CLI.

- With older versions of the CLI, the service only emits OIDC access tokens, so to obtain a new token, users must explicitly re-authenticate. To access the OIDC flow that supports token refresh and doesn’t require re-authentication, update to the latest CLI version (1.27.10 for CLI V1 and 2.9.0 for CLI V2) with support for OIDC token refresh and configurable IAM Identity Center session durations. For more information, see Configure Amazon Web Services access portal session duration .

- The access tokens provided by this service grant access to all Amazon Web Services account entitlements assigned to an IAM Identity Center user, not just a particular application.

- The documentation in this guide does not describe the mechanism to convert the access token into Amazon Web Services Auth (“sigv4”) credentials for use with IAM-protected Amazon Web Services service endpoints. For more information, see GetRoleCredentials in the IAM Identity Center Portal API Reference Guide.

For general information about IAM Identity Center, see What is IAM Identity Center? in the IAM Identity Center User Guide.

## Installing To install the this package, simply type add or install @aws-sdk/client-sso-oidc using your favorite package manager: - `npm install @aws-sdk/client-sso-oidc` - `yarn add @aws-sdk/client-sso-oidc` - `pnpm add @aws-sdk/client-sso-oidc` ## Getting Started ### Import The AWS SDK is modulized by clients and commands. To send a request, you only need to import the `SSOOIDCClient` and the commands you need, for example `CreateTokenCommand`: ```js // ES5 example const { SSOOIDCClient, CreateTokenCommand } = require("@aws-sdk/client-sso-oidc"); ``` ```ts // ES6+ example import { SSOOIDCClient, CreateTokenCommand } from "@aws-sdk/client-sso-oidc"; ``` ### Usage To send a request, you: - Initiate client with configuration (e.g. credentials, region). - Initiate command with input parameters. - Call `send` operation on client with command object as input. - If you are using a custom http handler, you may call `destroy()` to close open connections. ```js // a client can be shared by different commands. const client = new SSOOIDCClient({ region: "REGION" }); const params = { /** input parameters */ }; const command = new CreateTokenCommand(params); ``` #### Async/await We recommend using [await](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Operators/await) operator to wait for the promise returned by send operation as follows: ```js // async/await. try { const data = await client.send(command); // process data. } catch (error) { // error handling. } finally { // finally. } ``` Async-await is clean, concise, intuitive, easy to debug and has better error handling as compared to using Promise chains or callbacks. #### Promises You can also use [Promise chaining](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Guide/Using_promises#chaining) to execute send operation. ```js client.send(command).then( (data) => { // process data. }, (error) => { // error handling. } ); ``` Promises can also be called using `.catch()` and `.finally()` as follows: ```js client .send(command) .then((data) => { // process data. }) .catch((error) => { // error handling. }) .finally(() => { // finally. }); ``` #### Callbacks We do not recommend using callbacks because of [callback hell](http://callbackhell.com/), but they are supported by the send operation. ```js // callbacks. client.send(command, (err, data) => { // process err and data. }); ``` #### v2 compatible style The client can also send requests using v2 compatible style. However, it results in a bigger bundle size and may be dropped in next major version. More details in the blog post on [modular packages in AWS SDK for JavaScript](https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/developer/modular-packages-in-aws-sdk-for-javascript/) ```ts import * as AWS from "@aws-sdk/client-sso-oidc"; const client = new AWS.SSOOIDC({ region: "REGION" }); // async/await. try { const data = await client.createToken(params); // process data. } catch (error) { // error handling. } // Promises. client .createToken(params) .then((data) => { // process data. }) .catch((error) => { // error handling. }); // callbacks. client.createToken(params, (err, data) => { // process err and data. }); ``` ### Troubleshooting When the service returns an exception, the error will include the exception information, as well as response metadata (e.g. request id). ```js try { const data = await client.send(command); // process data. } catch (error) { const { requestId, cfId, extendedRequestId } = error.$metadata; console.log({ requestId, cfId, extendedRequestId }); /** * The keys within exceptions are also parsed. * You can access them by specifying exception names: * if (error.name === 'SomeServiceException') { * const value = error.specialKeyInException; * } */ } ``` ## Getting Help Please use these community resources for getting help.
