OAuth Authorization Code Flow - OutSystems OAuth Token Service Demo and Article
Discussion

Hi all,

i see that some fellow Low Coders struggle in accessing Web APIs where an access token must be acquired by OAuth Authorization Code Flow (with or without Proof Key Code Exchange).

I published an article on medium on how to build an OAuth Token Service in OutSystems including a demo application (or basic reference implementation) available on the Forge.

Medium: https://stefan-weber.medium.com/acquire-and-link-multiple-oauth-tokens-to-outsystems-users-for-delegated-access-b2ba74ca78a0

Forge: https://www.outsystems.com/forge/component-overview/14464/multi-oauth-account-linking-demo


To sum it up

* Acquire Tokens via Authorization Code Flow

* Refresh access tokens when needed

* Example included using Spotify Web API

Hope you like it and it helps you. Feedback is always welcome.

Thanks

Stefan

Hi @Stefan Weber,

I wanted to express my appreciation for the detailed post you shared. It has been incredibly informative and valuable to me.

Recently, my team lead challenged me to expand my knowledge of APIs more engagingly. They suggested that I undertake a small pet project to make the learning process enjoyable. 

To start, I decided to take a short course on YouTube
(link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WXsD0ZgxjRw).

During the course, we explored Spotify's API, which immediately caught my attention as a potential integration for an OutSystems application. Your demo will serve as an excellent guide to help me better understand the implementation.

Thank you for generously sharing your insights and resources.
