From b13433e31996098c6b18ba41cc2e61405e7f5d44 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Manoj B Bhamsagar Date: Tue, 16 Dec 2025 12:20:24 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] Add OAuth 2.0 Client Credentials Grant Flow support This PR adds support for OAuth 2.0 Client Credentials Grant Flow, enabling machine-to-machine authentication without requiring user credentials (username/password). Features: - ServiceNowClientCredentialsFlow: Sync implementation - AsyncServiceNowClientCredentialsFlow: Async implementation - Automatic token refresh with 60-second expiration buffer - Comprehensive error handling with detailed messages - Secure credential storage using name mangling - Full test coverage for both sync and async flows Implementation Details: - Custom AuthBase handlers for transparent token management - Token refresh before each request when expired - Support for both requests (sync) and httpx (async) - Proper module exports and type hints Tests: - Added 3 sync test cases in test/test_snc_auth.py - Added 3 async test cases in test/asyncio/test_snc_auth.py - Tests cover: basic auth, token refresh, error handling - All tests marked as skipped by default (require OAuth setup) This implementation has been tested successfully with live ServiceNow credentials and is production-ready. Fixes the gap where OAuth authentication required both username/password AND client credentials. Now supports true client credentials flow with only client_id and client_secret. --- pysnc/asyncio/__init__.py | 2 + pysnc/asyncio/auth.py | 130 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ pysnc/asyncio/client.py | 25 ++++++- pysnc/auth.py | 124 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ test/asyncio/test_snc_auth.py | 72 ++++++++++++++++++- test/test_snc_auth.py | 64 ++++++++++++++++- 6 files changed, 412 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) diff --git a/pysnc/asyncio/__init__.py b/pysnc/asyncio/__init__.py index 040f490..4842a65 100644 --- a/pysnc/asyncio/__init__.py +++ b/pysnc/asyncio/__init__.py @@ -8,6 +8,7 @@ AsyncServiceNowFlow, AsyncServiceNowJWTAuth, AsyncServiceNowPasswordGrantFlow, + AsyncServiceNowClientCredentialsFlow, ) from .client import ( AsyncAttachmentAPI, @@ -28,5 +29,6 @@ "AsyncAttachment", "AsyncServiceNowFlow", "AsyncServiceNowPasswordGrantFlow", + "AsyncServiceNowClientCredentialsFlow", "AsyncServiceNowJWTAuth", ] diff --git a/pysnc/asyncio/auth.py b/pysnc/asyncio/auth.py index 6413e8e..b6544ba 100644 --- a/pysnc/asyncio/auth.py +++ b/pysnc/asyncio/auth.py @@ -105,6 +105,136 @@ async def authenticate(self, instance: str, **kwargs) -> httpx.AsyncClient: # t return client +class AsyncServiceNowClientCredentialsFlow(AsyncServiceNowFlow): + """ + OAuth2 Client Credentials Grant Flow for async ServiceNow client. + + This flow is ideal for machine-to-machine authentication where no user context is needed. + Only requires client_id and client_secret (no username/password). + + Example: + >>> flow = AsyncServiceNowClientCredentialsFlow('my_client_id', 'my_client_secret') + >>> client = AsyncServiceNowClient('dev12345', flow) + """ + + def __init__(self, client_id: str, client_secret: str): + """ + Client Credentials flow authentication (OAuth 2.0) + + :param client_id: The OAuth application client ID + :param client_secret: The OAuth application client secret + """ + self.client_id = client_id + self.__secret = client_secret + self.__token: Optional[str] = None + self.__expires_at: Optional[float] = None + + def authorization_url(self, authorization_base_url: str) -> str: + """Generate the token endpoint URL""" + return f"{authorization_base_url}/oauth_token.do" + + async def _get_access_token(self, instance: str) -> str: + """ + Request an access token from ServiceNow using client credentials. + + :param instance: The ServiceNow instance URL + :return: Access token string + :raises AuthenticationException: If token request fails + """ + token_url = self.authorization_url(instance) + headers = { + 'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=UTF-8' + } + data = { + 'grant_type': 'client_credentials', + 'client_id': self.client_id, + 'client_secret': self.__secret + } + + async with httpx.AsyncClient() as client: + try: + r = await client.post(token_url, headers=headers, data=data, timeout=30.0) + except httpx.RequestError as e: + raise AuthenticationException(f"Failed to connect to token endpoint: {e}") + + if r.status_code != 200: + try: + error_data = r.json() + error_msg = error_data.get('error_description', error_data.get('error', r.text)) + except Exception: + error_msg = r.text + raise AuthenticationException( + f"Failed to obtain access token: {r.status_code} {r.reason_phrase} -
