OAuth credentials

OAuth credentials are an item that contains parameters required to implement user authentication or app authentication

You can access the properties of the item to obtain a client_id, client_secret, and authorize callback redirect URIs. The privileges of OAuth credentials can also be managed to scope the content and services available to an authorized application. They are a type of developer credential and adhere to the OAuth 2.0 protocol for client credentials. To learn more about the client credentials specification, go to RFC 6749 section 2.3.
