OAuth2.0 and OIDC: API Integration on Mobile Platforms
Summary
This article mainly introduces OAuth2.0 and OIDC technology, and how to implement API integration on the mobile platform. OAuth2.0 and OIDC are authorization protocols that can be used for API integration of mobile applications and websites. This article will introduce the basic concepts, implementation steps and application examples of OAuth2.0 and OIDC.
- introduction
1.1. Background introduction
With the rise of mobile apps and websites, API integration has become increasingly important. Traditional integration methods require writing code on each endpoint, which consumes developers' time and effort. At the same time, mobile applications need to handle different OAuth2.0 and OIDC requests, which makes the integration more complicated.
1.2. Purpose of the article
This article aims to introduce how to implement OAuth2.0 and OIDC integration on mobile platforms, so that developers can more easily integrate APIs of mobile applications and websites.
1.3. Target Audience
This article will be suitable for developers who need to understand OAuth2.0 and OIDC technology, and developers who need to understand how to implement API integration on mobile platforms.
- Technical Principles and Concepts
2.1. Explanation of basic concepts
Both OAuth2.0 and OIDC are authorization protocols for API integration. OAuth2.0 is a widely used authorization protocol introduced by Google in 2006. OAuth2.0 includes two parts of OAuth2.0 and OAuth2.0 client library. The OAuth2.0 client library allows developers to obtain access tokens from mobile applications using the OAuth2.0 protocol. OIDC is a variant of OAuth2.0, developed by the British National Standards Institute (BS). OIDC is a framework for mobile applications and websites
