I try to do a very simple webservice without a front-end application. Is there any documentation about that ? I have found nothing.
My goal is to register once with the default okta login page, and then do requests inside my desktop app. But the only documentation I have found ask to create a web page on the front and back end, and I don’t want that.
Am I totally wrong or is it possible ? To be honnest I am new to these subjects.
I thank you in advance.
You could create a REST API and secure it with Okta using something like our Spring Boot Starter or JWT Verifier. You’ll still need a way to get an access token in your desktop app to pass to your API. What technologies are you using to build everything?
I thank you for the reply.
I want to create an app with Unity that can fetch some data on our server. So server side I use visual studio in ASP.NET 4x, and front side I use Unity (c#). It will deploy either on windows, on webgl or on iOS.
Does it answer your question ?
Hi @Btn,
You can check out our ASP.NET Web API 4.x sample here: https://github.com/okta/samples-aspnet/tree/master/resource-server
Also, if you want step-by-step instructions you can also check out our new guide: https://developer.okta.com/guides/protect-your-api/aspnet/before-you-begin/
Let me know if this helps.
