The authorization endpoint is used to interact with the end user and obtain an authorization grant. The sample shows the POST {{davinciAuthPath}}/auth/{{companyID}}/policy/{{flowPolicyID}}/authorize?client_id={{clientID}}}}&response_type=code&scope=openid%20profile&redirect_uri=https://example.com operation.
In this example, the request URL includes the response_type parameter with a value of code, which designates that this authorization request, if successful, returns an authorization code that is exchanged for an access token.
Required query parameters for a request that returns an authorization code in the response are:
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
client_id |
A string that specifies the application’s ID. |
redirect_uri |
A URL that specifies the return entry point of the application. |
response_type |
A string that specifies the code or token type returned by an authorization request. |
scope |
A string that specifies permissions that determine the resources that the application can access. This parameter is needed to specify accessible resources. |
