A scope defines what the token can do. Ask for the minimum — the user sees the full list before approving.

How scopes work in OAuth

You declare scopes at two points:
  1. Client registration — app defaults (dashboard or POST /oauth/register)
  2. Authorization — what you request for that login (scope on /oauth/authorize)
The token only works on endpoints the scope allows — same as API keys.

List by channel

Common examples

Multiple scopes: scope=email:send%20contacts:read.
