So the endpoint is dealing with ROA URI is having an end user's agent (browser, the client code) awaiting. Now as you said the end user will need to be presented with a consumer/request token authorization form. This form will need to have a URI pointing back to the server, to yet another endpoint, the ROA Confirmation URI so that when the end user presses OK in his browser the server can get the confirmation. Once the server gets the confirmation it will just need to redirect the end user back to the consumer, using the callback URI the consumer provided earlier on, I've been using 303 in my own work but I was looking at the OAuth 2.0 recently and they use 302. You can set this status on the JAXRS Response, and Location header to the callback URI. Hope it helps, Sergey > Any help on that? > > Cheers, > Lukasz Moren >
