How to use

Obtaining an access token

In Egnyte.Api all 3 authorization flows are implemented. However, Authorization Code Flow is the most common. To create authorize uri, use OAuthHelper class:

var authorizeUrl = OAuthHelper.GetAuthorizeUri(
    OAuthAuthorizationFlow.Code,
    Domain,
    PrivateKey,
    "https://mywebsite.com/redirectEgnyteResponse");

You will need to redirect user to that url, so he can enter he's credentianls. After getting the response, token can be obtained like this:

var token = await EgnyteClientHelper.GetTokenFromCode(
	Domain,
    PrivateKey,
    Secret,
    "https://mywebsite.com/redirectEgnyteResponse",
	code);

API operations using token

To perform Egnyte API operations, please create EgnyteClient:

var client = new EgnyteClient(Token, Domain);

// lists files and folders in Documents directory
var listing = await client.Files.ListFileOrFolder("Shared/Documents");

For more details, read methods descriptions or documentation.

Known issues

When using Egnyte.Api package with .Net Framework older then 4.6, you might run into a securitu protocol issues. If you run into this error message:

An error occurred while making the HTTP request to https://. This could be due to the fact that the server certificate is not configured properly with HTTP.SYS in the HTTPS case. This could also be caused by a mismatch of the security binding between the client and the server.

you might need to add this line to your application: ServicePointManager.SecurityProtocol = SecurityProtocolType.Tls12

and if that does not help, you might need to update your .Net Framework to 4.6 or higher. Please take a look at this article for more details.
