Hi Chuck, one of the advantages of the authz code grant type is refresh token support. I would suggest to mention this in the comparision with the implicit grant type. regards, Torsten. Gesendet mit BlackBerry® Webmail von Telekom Deutschland -Original Message- From: Chuck Mortimore

2011-05-24 Thread Eran Hammer-Lahav
All section 3 says is that you cannot use it alone for authentication. You can use it alone, but it is not considered authentication and the client identity is nothing more than a hint without other information you can validate. EHL From: oauth-boun...@ietf.org [mailto:oauth-boun...@ietf.org] O

[OAUTH-WG] Does Section 3 contradict Section 4.2 ? Recommendations for Native Apps

2011-05-24 Thread Monica Wilkinson
Hey guys I am working the engineers at my company to roll out OAuth 2 support for mobile and desktop. One concern is Section 3 of the spec calling out the fact that client id should not be used by itself, however the implicit grant does just that. And the new native apps section does not provide p

One of my items from yesterday was to update the text related to native applications. Primary goals were to: 1. remove the explicit preference for authorization_code grant type 2. provide a brief overview on means of initiating authorization requests and receiving callbacks 3. discuss t

George, you are correct that resources and clients must agree upon the format of the bearer token to achieve interoperability. The means for achieving this agreement is out of the scope of this document. -- Mike -Original Message- From: Marius Scurtescu

I think that this will be better moved into a separate document on assertions (were both authorization and authentication are talked about) and not to include in 4.5.1 but would like to see a reference in 4.5.1 to the new document -Original Message- From: oauth-boun...@ietf.org [mailto:o

The "printable non-whitespace ASCII characters" represents the access token, which is supposed to be opaque. I don't think this affects libraries. Marius On Tue, May 24, 2011 at 10:24 AM, George Fletcher wrote: > Do I understand this correctly that each resource owner can define it's own > for

I noticed yesterday, in -16, that the first time that client_id is mentioned is in a parenthetical in the second paragraph of section 3.1 which is a little awkward. The client_id parameter then shows up inside two examples before being listed as a required parameter in section 4.1.1, 4.1.3, 4.2.1

Do I understand this correctly that each resource owner can define it's own format for the "printable non-whitespace ASCII characters"? It seems like that would make it difficult for clients to use standard libraries because the Authorization header format could be different on a per resource/h
