Caterpillar OAuth Scopes

OAuth 2.0 probed

Caterpillar publishes 13 OAuth 2.0 scopes via the clientCredentials and authorizationCode flows. Scopes are the fine-grained permissions an application requests at authorization time to act against the Caterpillar API on a user’s behalf.

Tokens are issued from https://fedlogin.cat.com/as/token.oauth2.

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.

  Read from `scopes_supported` in the live OIDC discovery document served by
  Caterpillar's PingFederate authorization server (HTTP 200, 2026-09-05). This is
  the authorization server's full advertised scope set across every client it
  serves — Caterpillar publishes no per-API scope reference page, and the Cat
  Digital developer guides describe the client-credentials exchange without naming
  scopes, so which of these an ISO 15143-3 or VisionLink subscription is actually
  granted is not publicly stated. Descriptions below are the standard OIDC
  meanings where they apply; the Caterpillar-specific scopes carry no published
  description and are recorded without one rather than guessed at.
