How to access token through API

[lyy20000701]

Hi dear developers! Is there any way to use this api(GET_ACCESS_TOKEN: '/api/2.0/mlflow/users/access-token') to automatically get access token for users? What should be put in request header? I tried several ways to send in username and password but cannot obtain correct token.

hello, you should send correct auth header or reuse flask session

@kharkevich do you have an example of the correct auth header?

[kharkevich]

sure, for example: https://chatgpt.com/share/678fc108-fbf8-8001-a2b7-2e1271bff92a

So I am sort of able to get it workin. I have an OIDC which uses client_id, client_secret.

My client_id is configured to have a hardcoded user claim, pointing to my own user account for now. Then I fetch an access token from the OIDC provider using the client_id, client_secret and pass this as a bearer token to: /api/2.0/mlflow/users/access-token.

In the JWT bearer token it will have email: "my-user-email"

And now I successfully get an access token, since the api was properly authenticated. But this is only because my user account was created when configuring mlflow.

I want however to be able to generate an access token for a functional account in mlflow, that I can use in automated pipelines. Any suggestions here @kharkevich? Not sure what the best approach is to create an account through the API.

I can do it manually by creating an account in my OIDC, logging with that account into the mlflow ui and then have the user be auto created but there must be a better way for this?
