With the Authentication module, Connect IQ apps will be able to make OAuth requests redirected through Connect IQ mobile app.

  Request an OAuth sign-in through Garmin Connect IQ Mobile App A notification will trigger on the phone, that when clicked, provides a web view that shows requestUrl.

  Register a callback for receiving OAuth messages.

Instance Method Details

makeOAuthRequest(requestUrl as Lang.String, requestParams as Lang.Dictionary<Lang.String, Lang.String>, resultUrl as Lang.String, resultType as Authentication.OAuthResultType, resultKeys as Lang.Dictionary<Lang.String, Lang.String>) as Void

Request an OAuth sign-in through Garmin Connect IQ Mobile App

A notification will trigger on the phone, that when clicked, provides a web view that shows requestUrl. If the user grants permission to the app, then the callback registered by registerForOAuthMessages() will be called with an OAuthMessage from the OAuth response.

Parameters:

• requestUrl — (Lang.String) —

  The URL to load in the web view to begin authentication

• requestParams — (Lang.Dictionary) —

  Non-URL encoded parameters for the requestUrl

• resultUrl — (Lang.String) —

  The URL of the final page of authentication that contains the resultKeys

• resultType — (Lang.Number) —

  An OAUTH_RESULT_TYPE_* value that specifies the format of the result

• resultKeys — (Lang.Dictionary) —

  The desired OAuth response values passed to the callback method. The keys map to the actual OAuth response keys, and the values map to the keys of the OAuthMessage data.

Example:

using Toybox.Authentication;
using Toybox.System;

const CLIENT_ID = "myClientID";
const OAUTH_CODE = "myOAuthCode";
const OAUTH_ERROR = "myOAuthError";

// register a callback to capture results from OAuth requests
Authentication.registerForOAuthMessages(method(:onOAuthMessage));

// wrap the OAuth request in a function
function getOAuthToken() {
   status = "Look at OAuth screen\n";
   Ui.requestUpdate();

   // set the makeOAuthRequest parameters
   var params = {
       "redirect_uri" => "connectiq://oauth",
       "response_type" => "code",
       "client_id" => $.CLIENT_ID
   };

   // makeOAuthRequest triggers login prompt on mobile device.
   // "responseCode" and "responseError" are the parameters passed
   // to the resultUrl. Check the oauth provider's documentation
   // to determine the correct strings to use.
   Auth.makeOAuthRequest(
       "https://requesturl.com",
       params,
       "http://resulturl.com",
       Auth.OAUTH_RESULT_TYPE_URL,
       {"responseCode" => $.OAUTH_CODE, "responseError" => $.OAUTH_ERROR}
   );
}

// implement the OAuth callback method
function onOAuthMessage(message) {
    if (message.data != null) {
        var code = message.data[$.OAUTH_CODE];
        var error = message.data[$.OAUTH_ERROR];
    } else {
        // return an error
    }
}
// the OAuth service can now be used with a makeWebRequest() call

Since:

API Level 3.3.0

registerForOAuthMessages(method as Lang.Method(message as Authentication.OAuthMessage) as Void) as Void

Register a callback for receiving OAuth messages.

The callback will be called once for each received OAuth message. If there are messages waiting for the app when this function is called, the callback will immediately be called once for each waiting message.

Parameters:

• method — (Lang.Method) —

  A reference to a callback, which must receive a data argument of the type OAuthMessage.

Example:

using Toybox.Authentication;

function onOAuthMessage(message) {
    if (message.data != null) {
        var code = message.data[OAUTH_CODE];
        var error = message.data[OAUTH_ERROR];
    } else {
        // return an error
    }
}
Authentication.registerForOAuthMessages(method(:onOAuthMessage));
