How to securely get access token from Marketo


Marketo Rest API exposes a GET call to oauth/token uri, which exposes clientId and clientSecret parameters to all internet hops between the 2 networks. Am I missing something or is there a way we can securely get an access token?


Solution

  • I actually got my facts wrong, basically this get call is https, and query parameters will be sent encrypted over the wire once it establishes a secure connection to the server. Only caveat I found is that a server admin can read the credentials in clear text if browsed server file system which is a low risk.
