Create an authorization

POST /authorizations

When a user confirms they want to grant access, this will create the authorization. The user will be redirected to the callback URL, with an authorization code that can be exchanged for an access token.

scopenull | string✻

Space-delimited, case-sensitive list of <action>:<scope> permissions, such as read:name.

A client either follows the permissions the End-User has approved, or fixes a subset of them:

  • omitted or empty — the authorization follows the End-User's approved permissions, so each token carries whatever they allow at the time it is issued. Consent is requested again when the app gains a permission they have not approved.
  • a subset — the authorization is fixed to exactly those permissions. Requesting a permission the app is not allowed to ask for is rejected with invalid_scope, and requesting a different set later replaces the previous authorization.

Changing the requested scope replaces the authorization: any authorization code not yet redeemed, and
every refresh token previously issued to this client for this user, stop working and the End-User authorizes
again. A client that needs different scopes for different surfaces should use a client per surface.

On a refresh request, the value may only narrow what was already granted.

In a token response, this is the scope actually granted — for an authorization that follows the End-User's permissions, the set approved at that moment.
