The auth endpoint provides details about the user authentication and authorization and refresh tokens.

Login user and get tokens

You can use any user's credentials from dummyjson.com/users. Tokens are returned in the response and set as cookies.

 fetch('https://dummyjson.com/auth/login', { method: 'POST', headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' }, body: JSON.stringify({  username: 'emilys', password: 'emilyspass', expiresInMins: 30, // optional, defaults to 60 }), credentials: 'include' // Include cookies (e.g., accessToken) in the request }) .then(res => res.json()) .then(console.log); 
 { "id": 1, "username": "emilys", "email": "emily.johnson@x.dummyjson.com", "firstName": "Emily", "lastName": "Johnson", "gender": "female", "image": "https://dummyjson.com/icon/emilys/128", "accessToken": "eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9...", // JWT accessToken (for backward compatibility) in response and cookies "refreshToken": "eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9..." // refreshToken in response and cookies } 
Get current auth user
 /* providing accessToken in bearer */ fetch('https://dummyjson.com/auth/me', { method: 'GET', headers: { 'Authorization': 'Bearer /* YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN_HERE */', // Pass JWT via Authorization header }, credentials: 'include' // Include cookies (e.g., accessToken) in the request }) .then(res => res.json()) .then(console.log); 
 { "id": 1, "username": "emilys", "email": "emily.johnson@x.dummyjson.com", "firstName": "Emily", "lastName": "Johnson", "gender": "female", "image": "https://dummyjson.com/icon/emilys/128" ... // other user fields } 
Refresh auth session

Extend the session and create a new access token without username and password. Tokens can also be passed using cookies.

 fetch('https://dummyjson.com/auth/refresh', { method: 'POST', headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' }, body: JSON.stringify({ refreshToken: '/* YOUR_REFRESH_TOKEN_HERE */', // Optional, if not provided, the server will use the cookie expiresInMins: 30, // optional (FOR ACCESS TOKEN), defaults to 60 }), credentials: 'include' // Include cookies (e.g., accessToken) in the request }) .then(res => res.json()) .then(console.log); 
 { "accessToken": "eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9...", // new accessToken (returned in both response and cookies) "refreshToken": "eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9..." // new refreshToken (returned in both response and cookies) }
