Douban OpenID

• 3rd-party sites and applications can let visitors sign in using their douban id

Inside Douban API

• using OAuth 2.0 to access douban APIs• The core concepts are simple:– Your application asks for a particular scope of access– Douban displays an OAuth page to users, asking for

consent to authorize access to your application– If the user approves, your application will get a shortlived

access token that you can use to validate requests for the user's data and a long-lived refresh token.

Inside Douban API

• Today Douban supports three flows of OAuth 2.0– The client-side flow for JavaScript applications

running in a browser– The server-side flow for web applications with

servers that can securely store persistent information

– The native application flow for desktop and mobile applications
