GetAuthorization Method

Gets the authorization string required to access the protected resource.

Syntax

[VB.NET]
Public Function GetAuthorization() As String

[C#]
public string GetAuthorization();

Remarks

This method performs several operations automatically depending on the value of ClientProfile. Please see the introduction section for the OAuth component for a detailed overview of the typical scenarios.

After authorization is completed this method will return the authorization string which can be passed directly to the Authorization property of any other component. This can also be passed as the value of the HTTP Authorization header to other implementations that access the protected resource as well.

RefreshToken will also be populated with the refresh token if one is returned.

NOTE: This method has a corresponding asynchronous version (GetAuthorizationAsync) for use in the WinRT environment.
