Hi Nadalin,
that means, that I would use an existing OAuth-2-Token as the assertion for requesting another OAuth-2-Token, right? Section 5.2. "General Assertion Format and Processing Rules" of this draft says, that the assertion has to contain an Issuer as well as an audience. The OAuth-2-Token doesn't have such fields by definition, but one can argue, that it is associated with an issuer (= auth-server) as well with a scope, which could be seen as the audience in this case. Am I right? Wishes, Manfred Von: Anthony Nadalin [mailto:tony...@microsoft.com] Gesendet: Freitag, 19.

Generally speaking, we work with the assertion profiles as a starting point. They allow for WS-Trust like token exchanges and (implicitly) support ActAs or OnBehalfOf. But they do need additional profiling to offer genuine interoperability in this area. https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-oauth-assertions/ https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-oauth-jwt-bearer/ https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-oauth-saml2-bearer/ What use-cases do you have in mind? I am not sure I follow what you mean by "a resource server could delegate a subset of the delegated rights to another resource server". - prateek Hi, are there plans for supporting delegation-styles like ActAs or OnBehalfOf in SAML? If this was possible, a resource server could delegate a subset of the delegated rights to another resource server. This could be a very important thing, when one wants to use OAuth 2 within an enterprise-environment. I know, that OAuth 2 has been created for web-scenarios, but it's a fact that OAuth 2 is used as a "REST-friedly" alternative to WS-* in the area of service-security. Would it be the right way, to define an Extension Grants for such a scenario?
