Authentication and OAuth

How does implicit OAuth work?

January 14, 2020 By Tom Demeranville

Implicit OAuth is a lighter weight version of OAuth designed to be used by systems that do not have, or do not want to use server side components. Implicit OAuth can be implemented entirely in the browser using javascript alone. It is available for members and non-members and works like this: You create a special Continue Reading

When is authorization skipped?

January 14, 2020 By Tom Demeranville

If an active access token already exists with the same scopes that your OAuth authorization URL requests, and the user is signed into their ORCID record, they will not be prompted to grant authorization again.

How do I force a user to logout?

January 14, 2020 By Tom Demeranville

If you are concerned with multiple users being on the same machine and not signing out between sessions, you can force a sign-out before starting the OAuth process. To force a sign-out, send the user to the page https://orcid.org/userStatus.json?logUserOut=true.
