Acquires an access token for an agent identity using client credentials.

Syntax

Default (Default)

Get-EntraBetaAgentIdentityToken

 [-BlueprintAppId <String>]
 [-AgentIdentityAppId <String>]
 [-BlueprintSecret <SecureString>]
 [-Scope <String>]
 [-Mode <String>]
 [-UserToken <String>]
 [-UserUpn <String>]
 [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The Get-EntraBetaAgentIdentityToken cmdlet acquires an access token for an agent identity using client credentials. To create a new agent identity for this session, use Invoke-EntraBetaAgentIdInteractive. The token is returned as a string.

Examples

Example 1: Get token using stored session values

Connect-Entra -Scopes 'Application.ReadWrite.All'
# Create agent identity using interactive cmdlet
Invoke-EntraBetaAgentIdInteractive
# Get token using stored values from the session
$token = Get-EntraBetaAgentIdentityToken

This example retrieves an access token using the blueprint and agent identity created in the current session.

Example 2: Get token with specific parameters

Connect-Entra -Scopes 'Application.ReadWrite.All'
$secret = ConvertTo-SecureString "your-secret-here" -AsPlainText -Force
$token = Get-EntraBetaAgentIdentityToken -BlueprintAppId "12345..." -AgentIdentityAppId "87654..." -BlueprintSecret $secret -Scope "https://graph.microsoft.com/.default"

This example retrieves an access token by providing all required parameters explicitly.

Example 3: Get token for OBO (On-Behalf-Of) flow

Connect-Entra -Scopes 'Application.ReadWrite.All'
$userToken = "user-access-token"
$token = Get-EntraBetaAgentIdentityToken -BlueprintAppId "12345..." -AgentIdentityAppId "87654..." -Scope "https://graph.microsoft.com/.default" -Mode OBO -UserToken $userToken

This example retrieves an access token using the On-Behalf-Of (OBO) flow, where the agent acts on behalf of a user.

Example 4: Get token for AutonomousUser mode

Connect-Entra -Scopes 'Application.ReadWrite.All'
$token = Get-EntraBetaAgentIdentityToken -BlueprintAppId "12345..." -AgentIdentityAppId "87654..." -Scope "https://graph.microsoft.com/.default" -Mode AutonomousUser -UserUpn "user@contoso.com"

This example retrieves an access token in AutonomousUser mode, specifying a user UPN.
