mytoken

Mytoken is a web service to obtain OpenID Connect Access Tokens in an easy but secure way for extended periods of time and across multiple devices. In particular, mytoken was developed to provide OIDC Access Tokens to long-running compute jobs.

Access Tokens can be obtained via so-called mytokens: A new token type that can be easily used as a Bearer token from any device. These mytokens can be restricted according to the particular use case to only allow the needed privileges.

Mytoken focuses on integration with the command line through this command line client but also offers a web interface. A demo instance of the server and webinterface is available at https://mytoken.data.kit.edu/.

Documentation is available at https://mytoken-docs.data.kit.edu/.

A go library for interacting with the mytoken server can be found at https://github.com/oidc-mytoken/lib.
