api - What is an Endpoint? -
I'm reading about Oath and it's talking about ending points. What is actually a closing point?
All answers posted so far are correct, one end point is only one end of a communication channel In the case of Oath, there are three end points for which you need to:
- Temporary Credential Request URI (called OO0 1.0A Community Specification, Request Token URL). This is a URI that you send a request to the server / service provider to obtain an unauthorized request token.
- Resource owner authorization URI (called user authorization url in OAuth 1.0a community specificity) This is a URI that you direct the user to authorize the request token received from the temporary credential request URI.
- Token Request URI (which is called Access Token URL in OAuth 1.0A Community Space) This is a URI that you send a request to exchange an authorized request token for an access token which can be used to access a protected resource.
Hope that helps to clean things, learn about the fun OAuth! If you run into any difficulty in implementing an OAuth client, then post more questions
