Ford publishes 14 OAuth 2.0 scopes. Scopes are the fine-grained permissions an application requests at authorization time to act against the Ford API on a user’s behalf.
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.

note: 'Ford does not publish a conventional OAuth scope string list. Authorization on FordConnect is granted
as DATA CATEGORIES: an application declares the categories it needs on the ''API & Scope Info'' step
of credential creation (''Data categories in scope'', ''At least one Data Category must be selected''),
and the vehicle owner consents to those categories in the FordPass account-linking flow. The categories
below are Ford''s own, harvested verbatim from the developer portal. The OIDC layer itself advertises
only the ''openid'' scope — confirmed from Ford''s own Azure AD B2C discovery document — so the category
list, not an OAuth scope string, is the real permission surface. The single ''access'' scope previously
recorded here was derived from an API Evangelist documentation-derived OpenAPI, not from Ford.'
