I would expect our OAuth 1.0 services to have support for OAuth 1.0 and 2.0 for some period. I don't think we could expect all our clients to move to OAuth 2.0 at once. This is an interesting idea that allows clients to be able to cut over to OAuth 2.0 without users having to re-authenticate/authorize.
Why not just transfer the remaining session lifetime to the new access token (or refresh token if requested). I would expect the scope to be transferred as well. I would want our users to authorize any extended period. Could the need to replace the client secret just be left up to the authorization service? Revoking the OAuth 1.0 token seems to fit the spirit of the use case. -----Original Message----- From: oauth-boun...@ietf.org [mailto:oauth-boun...@ietf.org] On Behalf Of Allen Tom Sent: Tuesday, May 04, 2010 4:04 PM To: Justin Richer; Marius Scurtescu; OAuth WG Subject: Re: [OAUTH-WG] OAuth 1 Bridge Flow Although we have not formally announced any plans to support OAuth2 yet, I would expect that Yahoo would be able to simultaneously support both Oauth 1.0a and OAuth2 without requiring clients to upgrade their existing Oauth 1.0a credentials for OAuth2. Note: Yahoo currently requires the Session Extension, so all of our Access Tokens are valid for one hour. The OAuth2 Refresh Token is equivalent to the Session Extension's "Auth Session Handle" Allen On 5/4/10 11:46 AM, "Justin Richer" <jric...@mitre.org> wrote: > Interesting work.
