@adobe/fetch

adobe-fetch

Call Adobe APIs

Goals

Make calling Adobe APIs a breeze!

This package will handle JWT authentication, token caching and storage.
Otherwise it works exactly as fetch

Installation

npm install --save @adobe/fetch

Common Usage

    const fs = require('fs');
    
    const config = { 
      auth: {
          clientId: 'asasdfasf',
          clientSecret: 'aslfjasljf-=asdfalasjdf==asdfa',
          technicalAccountId: '[e-mail]',
          orgId: 'asdfasdfasdf@AdobeOrg',
          metaScopes: ['ent_dataservices_sdk']
      }
    };
    
    config.auth.privateKey = fs.readFileSync('private.key');

    const adobefetch = require('@adobe/fetch').config(config);

    adobefetch("https://platform.adobe.io/some/adobe/api", { method: 'get'})
      .then(response => response.json())
      .then(json => console.log('Result: ',json));

Config Auth object

The config.auth object is where you pass in all the required and optional parameters to authenticate API calls.

parameter	integration name	required	type	default
clientId	API Key (Client ID)	true	String
technicalAccountId	Technical account ID	true	String
orgId	Organization ID	true	String
clientSecret	Client secret	true	String
privateKey		true	String
passphrase		false	String
metaScopes		true	Comma separated Sting or an Array
ims		false	String	https://ims-na1.adobelogin.com

In order to determine which metaScopes you need to register for you can look them up by product in this handy table.

For instance, if you need to be authenticated to call API's for both GDPR and User Management you would look them up and find that they are:

• GDPR: https://ims-na1.adobelogin.com/s/ent_gdpr_sdk
• User Management: https://ims-na1.adobelogin.com/s/ent_user_sdk

Then you would create an array of metaScopes as part of the config object. For instance:

const config = {
  auth: {
      clientId: 'asasdfasf',
      clientSecret: 'aslfjasljf-=asdfalasjdf==asdfa',
      technicalAccountId: '[e-mail]',
      orgId: 'asdfasdfasdf@AdobeOrg',
      metaScopes: [
        'https://ims-na1.adobelogin.com/s/ent_gdpr_sdk',
        'https://ims-na1.adobelogin.com/s/ent_user_sdk'
      ]
  }
};

However, if you omit the IMS URL, the package will automatically add it for you when making the call to generate the JWT.

For example:

const config = {
  auth: {
      clientId: 'asasdfasf',
      clientSecret: 'aslfjasljf-=asdfalasjdf==asdfa',
      technicalAccountId: '[e-mail]',
      orgId: 'asdfasdfasdf@AdobeOrg',
      metaScopes: ['ent_gdpr_sdk', 'ent_user_sdk']
  }
};

This is the recommended approach.

Predefined Headers

If you have HTTP headers that are required for each request, you can provide them in the configuration. They will be then added automatically to each request.

You can provide either a value or a function. A function can be used when you need to generate a dynamic header value on each request.

For example:

const config = {
  auth: {
    ... Auth Configuration ...
  },
  headers: {
    'x-sandbox-name': 'prod',
    'x-request-id': () => idGenerationFunc()
  }
};

The following headers are added automatically by adobe-fetch, you can override all of them besides authorization*[]:

• authorization
• x-api-key
• x-request-id
• x-gw-ims-org-id

Custom Storage

By default, node-persist is used to store all the active tokens locally.
Tokens will be stored under /.node-perist/storage

It is possible to use any other storage for token persistence. This is done by providing read and write methods as follows:

const config = {
  auth: {
      clientId: 'asasdfasf',
      
      ...
      
      storage: {
        read: function() {
          return new Promise(function(resolve, reject) {
            let tokens;
            
            // .. Some logic to read the tokens ..
            
            resolve(tokens);
          });
        },
        write: function(tokens) {
          return new Promise(function(resolve, reject) {
            
            // .. Some logic to save the tokens ..
            
            resolve();
          });
        }
      }
  }
};

Alternatively, use async/await:

const config = {
  auth: {
      clientId: 'asasdfasf',
      
      ...
      
      storage: {
        read: async function() {
          return await myGetTokensImplementation();            
        },
        write: async function(tokens) {
          await myStoreTokensImplementation(tokens);
        }
      }
  }
};

Logging

Every request will include a unique request identifier sent via the x-request-id.
The request identifier can be overriden by providing it through the headers:

fetch(url, {
  headers: { 'x-request-id': myRequestID }
});

We use debug to log requests. In order to see all the debug output, including the request identifiers, run your app with the DEBUG environment variable including the @adobe/fetch scope as follows:

DEBUG=@adobe/fetch
