Client Management - Authlete Documentation

A client represents an application that requests authorization from your service. The Management API provides CRUD operations for clients, so you can register and maintain them programmatically — for example from your own developer portal or provisioning pipeline.

Client Management APIs

API	Purpose
/client/create	Register a new client.
/client/get	Retrieve a client’s settings.
/client/get/list	List clients registered in the service.
/client/update	Update a client’s settings.

You can also manage clients interactively in the Authlete Management Console, which uses these APIs under the hood.

End-User Grants per Client

Authlete records which client applications each end-user has authorized. The Management API exposes this relationship so you can build a “manage your authorized apps” screen:

/client/authorization/get/list — list the client applications an end-user has authorized
/client/authorization/update — update the attributes (e.g. scopes) of the access tokens issued to a client for an end-user
/client/authorization/delete — delete all access tokens issued to a client for an end-user

See Authlete’s Policy on Managing Clients Which Have Been Authorized by User for the underlying model.

Using Client ID Alias — human-friendly aliases for numeric client IDs
Client Attributes — attaching arbitrary key-value metadata to clients
