OAuth2 & OpenID Connect Deep Dive
"Login with Google" looks like one button but hides a specific, standardized protocol with four distinct actors. This chapter is OAuth2 and OpenID Connect, precisely.
Learning objectives
- Beginner: Name the four actors in OAuth2 and what each one's role is.
- Intermediate: Implement the Authorization Code Grant with PKCE for a web application.
- Advanced: Choose the correct grant type (Authorization Code, Client Credentials, etc.) for a given integration scenario, and explain how a resource server validates the resulting token.
