Help Scout OAuth Scopes

OAuth 2.0 derived

Help Scout uses OAuth 2.0 but publishes no discrete scopes — access is governed by the grant itself (e.g. client-credentials or role-based authorization) rather than per-scope consent.

Tokens are issued from https://api.helpscout.net/v2/oauth2/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.

Help Scout implements OAuth 2.0 but publishes no discrete scopes — access is governed by the grant itself (client-credentials or role-based authorization) rather than per-scope consent.

Help Scout's Mailbox API OAuth 2.0 (authorization code and client credentials flows) does not define or document any OAuth scopes; access is governed by the authorizing user's Help Scout account permissions (https://developer.helpscout.com/mailbox-api/overview/authentication/).
