Hi,

Just one remark, the example in [1] shows "client_id"; IMHO it makes sense to clarify than in this context (where the assertion is used as a grant), it is optional as per:

http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6749#section-3.2.1

"A client MAY use the "client_id" request parameter to identify itself
 when sending requests to the token endpoint"

and otherwise

http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6749#section-2.3

dictates how the client authentication is done.

By the way, my reading of the main spec's section 2.3 tells me that the only time one would use only "client_id" in the form payload is when the client secret is empty or perhaps the client is not in the possession of the secret.

Does it make sense to completely drop a "client_id" parameter in the example at [1] in the assertion draft and use an example with a Basic authentication instead ?

Thanks, Sergey

So currently the base assertion document defines scope as an HTTP
parameter on the access token request message when using an assertion as
a grant[1].  And that applies to both the SAML and JWT grants (perhaps
that needs to be more clear?). Also RFC 6749 defines the scope parameter
for the client credentials access token request[2], which similarly
applies to both SAML and JWT in the case of assertion client
authentication using the "client_credentials" grant type.

    Right ... thinking about this further I think the answer is "all of
    the above."  If the JWT is a grant type then as you say it needs a
    scope param and optionally a client_id param.  I argued for the
    client_id param earlier since it could assist with HOK scenarios
    once those further develop.

    But when the JWT is used as an AT then it will definitely require
    the scope as a claim.

    So I change my argument to "both" :)

    Assuming the assertion is acting as a grant, then it is indeed an access
    token request message, so IMHO it makes sense to get an outbound scope
    parameter optionally supported which I guess will imply that the client
    id will also have to accompany it...

    Cheers, Sergey
