AOL OAuth Scopes

OAuth 2.0 probed

AOL publishes 4 OAuth 2.0 scopes via the authorizationCode flow. Scopes are the fine-grained permissions an application requests at authorization time to act against the AOL API on a user’s behalf.

Tokens are issued from https://api.login.aol.com/oauth2/get_token.

This index is generated from the provider’s OpenAPI security definitions (and, where available, its documented scope reference) and refreshes on every APIs.io network build. Browse every provider’s scopes at scopes.apis.io.

  Upgraded from derived (three scopes read out of this repo's OpenAPI) to probed
  against AOL's own OpenID Connect discovery document, which advertises a fourth
  scope, `openid2`, that the spec omits. AOL publishes no separate scope /
  permissions reference page; `scopes_supported` in the discovery document is the
  authoritative published list.
