Username-Password OAuth Flow:
Hi All
Plz Need help.........
I am examining a sample which is in the salesforce developer site.
In that sample when we click a link it will be redirected to the salesforce login page. If the login successful, then an access token is issued.
I dont want my application to redirect to the salesforce login page.
What should I do to avoid redirecting to salesforce login page.
plz need ur help..................................
The only way you could do is using the Useragent-Password flow for your oauth.
http://wiki.developerforce.com/page/Digging_Deeper_into_OAuth_2.0_on_Force.com
The last flow is user-agent Password flow .Set up an integration user and then use it to get token.This avoids redirecting to authorise page.
Try using Obtaining a Token in an Autonomous Client (Username-Password Flow)
By setting the grant_type=password.
The response will contain the Access Token.

Hi Surprise,
Sorry for delayed response. Here are my responses for your questions
1) The below given code will be used by client aplication which is running outside salesforce.Is that correct?
<kv> Yes,
2) Now from where do we get the following information.
<kv> You will get Consumer Key, Secret by creating a Connected App in Salesforce.com. http://wiki.developerforce.com/page/Connected_Apps
3) Do we have to specify a paritcular username and passowrd Which will always remain?
<kv> Yes. if you want to use the username flow, you must create a User which can be used by client application and make sure that password never expires for that user
4) Once we get the access token thenhow do we use that ?.Can u please help.
<kv> You have to set the Authentication Header in the request you are doing from client.
Hope this helps
