Help on application-specific scopes implementation

[toasterlolz]

Hello,

Is it currently possible to define application-specific scopes? If so, could you provide guidance or point to any existing workarounds?

If this feature is not supported, how can I implement application-specific scopes? Specifically, I am looking for a way to define scopes tied to specific OAuth2 applications.

Also, I would appreciate any advice or direction on how to achieve this.

Thank you!

Take a look at https://columbia-it-django-jsonapi-training.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ where the application backend decides what to do given various scopes.

The term "application" in DOT is similar merging of a misnomer as it represents a client app operating on behalf of a user.

Hey @n2ygk ,

Thank you for sharing the resource. I was actually referring something similar to this,

#395.

Have you solved this problem? I'm also struggling with it. If you find a solution, please let me know. Thank you!

Wow 7 years ago there was already a plan. I'll see if any of those ideas or code can be brought forward.

I'm unable to find the scopes backend code referenced in the 2017 post by @synasius so I guess we need to start over on this.

Hi @n2ygk ,

https://github.com/jazzband/django-oauth-toolkit/pull/395/files

Isn't these relavent part of the code?

@gr4n73 those files are based on the codebase 7 years ago, but, more importably, @synasius had commented that he had a preferred solution in the works in a branch that no longer exists.
