Authenticating by Device Code

Method

  • Make sure you have an access token that is valid. If not, I suggest getting one through the client credentials grant and using the fortnitePCGameClient client

  • Get the device_code from sending a get device authorization and then open the verification_uri_complete URL in a browser and login to your account

  • Using the device_code from before, you can send a POST request to https://account-public-service-prod.ol.epicgames.com/account/api/oauth/token:
    Required headers:

    • Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
    • Authorization: basic clientId:secret (encoded in Base64, list of clients here)

    Body:

    • grant_type: device_code
    • device_code: (the device_code from before)

    If done successfully, you should now have an active authentication session for the account that used the https://epicgames.com/id/activate link.
