Flow

The client can request an access token using only its client credentials with this grant type. This grant type is similar to resource owner password credentials grant type except only the client’s credentials are used to authenticate a request for an access token.

Recommended Use

This grant is suitable for machine-to-machine authentication or for a client making requests to an API that don’t require user’s permission. Again this grant should only be allowed to be used by trusted clients.

You can try Client credentials grant type with WSO2 Identity Server and WSO2 OAuth2 Playground sample as described here.
