Salto KS OAuth Integration

Connect Salto KS to your application without building and maintaining the OAuth flow.

Salto KS is a cloud-based access control system for smart locks. Each user connects their own Salto KS account through your OAuth app. Pathfix manages the authorization flow, stores and refreshes their tokens, and authenticates the requests your application makes to the Salto KS API. What your integration does with that access is up to your code.

How Pathfix helps

01
OAuth authorization
Pathfix runs the authorization flow with your Salto KS OAuth app, so users approve access on Salto KS’s own consent screen.
02
Token management
Each user’s access and refresh tokens are stored by Pathfix rather than in your application.
03
Token refresh
Where Salto KS issues refresh tokens, Pathfix refreshes them as they expire, so connections keep working after the first authorization.
04
Authenticated API passthrough
Your application sends Salto KS API requests through Pathfix, which adds the connected user’s credentials before passing them on to Salto KS.

You own the Salto KS OAuth application and its credentials, and your code implements the API logic.

Add the credentials in Pathfix
In your Pathfix account, add an application, select Salto KS from the providers and enter the Client ID and Client Secret.
3
Choose your scopes
Add only the scopes your integration needs. Salto KS’s developer documentation lists what each scope allows.
