[!INCLUDEgetAuthTokenProvider-description]

Note

The live chat SDK methods should be invoked after the lcw:ready event is raised. You can listen for this event by adding your own event listener on the window object.

This SDK is applicable only if authentication is enabled for the widget. To enable authentication for your widget, see Create chat authentication settings.

Syntax

Microsoft.Omnichannel.LiveChatWidget.SDK.getAuthTokenProvider();

Parameters

None

Return Value

Returns the currently set authentication token provider, if any. If there is no registered authentication token provider, then it returns null.

Example

let payloadToEncrypt = {
    "sub" : "87b4d06c-abc2-e811-a9b0-000d3a10e09e",
    "lwicontexts" :"{\"msdyn_cartvalue\":\"10000\", \"msdyn_isvip\":\"false\"}",
    "iat" : 1542622071,
    "iss" : "contosohelp.com",
    "exp" : 1542625672,
    "nbf" : 1542622072
};

function convertToJwtToken(payloadToEncrypt){
    // Ideally, you should call your service to convert the payload to a valid JSON Web Token
    return Promise.resolve("eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJzdWIiOiI4N2I0ZDA2Yy1hYmMyLWU4MTEtYTliMC0wMDBkM2ExMGUwOWUiLCJsd2ljb250ZXh0cyI6IntcIm1zZHluX2NhcnR2YWx1ZVwiOlwiMTAwMDBcIiwgXCJtc2R5bl9pc3ZpcFwiOlwiZmFsc2VcIn0iLCJpYXQiOjE1NDI2MjIwNzEsImlzcyI6ImNvbnRvc29oZWxwLmNvbSIsImV4cCI6MTU0MjYyNTY3MiwibmJmIjoxNTQyNjIyMDcyfQ.r37z1M5rMyRYMOJ-rhyTRYFOgvl9N7KvTMueSFPkiuM");
}

window.addEventListener("lcw:ready", function handleLivechatReadyEvent(){
// Sets the auth-token provider
// Throws an error if authTokenProvider is not a function
    convertToJwtToken(payloadToEncrypt).then(function (jwtToken){
        Microsoft.Omnichannel.LiveChatWidget.SDK.setAuthTokenProvider(function authTokenProvider(callback){
            callback(jwtToken);
        });

        // Gets the currently set authentication token provider
        // If there is no registered authentication token provider, then it returns null
        let registeredAuthTokenProvider = Microsoft.Omnichannel.LiveChatWidget.SDK.getAuthTokenProvider();
    });
