I got the same reading of the list as you, and I could go either way. I believe we absolutely must pick one or the other though.
If anyone has thoughts on the matter one way or the other, please speak up. The options are: 1) scopes are returned as a JSON array (current introspection text) 2) scopes are returned as a space-separated string (rfc6749 format for the "scope" parameter) -- Justin On Feb 4, 2013, at 10:06 AM, Todd W Lainhart <lainh...@us.ibm.com<mailto:lainh...@us.ibm.com>> wrote: Has there been any thinking or movement as to whether the scopes syntax stands as is, or aligns with 6749? Of the folks who chose to respond, it seemed like the position was split.

Internally, we parse and store scopes as collections of discrete strings and process them that way. So serialization of that value naturally fell to a JSON list. -- Justin On 01/30/2013 05:29 PM, Justin Richer wrote: It's not meant to follow the same syntax. Instead, it's making use of the JSON object structure to avoid additional parsing of the values on the client side. We could fairly easily define it as the same space-delimited string if enough people want to keep the scope format consistent. -- Justin On 01/30/2013 05:27 PM, Todd W Lainhart wrote: That the scope syntax in draft-richer-oauth-introspection-01 is different than RFC 6749 Section 3.3, as in: "scope": ["read", "write", "dolphin"], vs. scope = scope-token *( SP scope-token ) scope-token = 1*( %x21 / %x23-5B / %x5D-7E ) Should introspection-01 follow the 6749 syntax for scopes? _______________________________________________ OAuth mailing list OAuth@ietf.org<mailto:OAuth@ietf.org> https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/oauth _______________________________________________ OAuth mailing list OAuth@ietf.org<mailto:OAuth@ietf.org> https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/oauth
