+1, that’s the idea — schema by fiat at the very least. This structure should 
be a flexible JSON object that can take whatever shape its attendant API would 
need it to have. The goal of the “common data elements” is to provide just 
enough structure to be generally useful, and it’s based on what dimensions I’ve 
seen “scope” used for in the wild most often. If you’ve got your own fields and 
dimensions, then those definitely should be their own space and not crammed 
into the existing ones. But if you’ve got something that feels like an 
“action”? Use that space.

In general, it's difficult to determine how to extend for new types or if they 
should be wrapped up in "data" somehow.


{
    "type":"https://example.com/my_field";<https://example.com/my_field>,
    "actions":[
        "read"
    ],
    "my_field": {
        "id": "<id_value>"
    }
}

I'm assuming the above is perfectly legit and the intended way for the spec to 
be extended? If not, what is the expected extension mechanism?

Thanks,
George

I guess we differ in our opinion of how remiss that would be. But given what 
you've got in there now, the more narrow point I was trying to make was to say 
that I don't think "data" is defined or explained well enough to be helpful.

I think that we need to define :some: common set to data elements in this spec, 
in order to help people who are using this and trying to apply it to their APIs 
do so in vaguely consistent ways. The details of which parts we standardize on 
are still, I think, up for grabs. I’d be happy to have a better name than 
“data” for this aspect, but I think there’s value in defining this kind of 
thing. Like in the financial space, it’s the difference between “transactions” 
and “accounts”. Or in the medical space, there’s “demographics” and 
“appointments” and “testResults”. This is a very, very, very common way to 
slice up OAuth-protected resources, and we’d be remiss to leave it undefined 
and just have every API developer need to come up with their own version of the 
same thing.

I'm not entirely sold on the draft attempting to define this set of common data 
elements in the first place. But that said, I think (similar to George?) I'm 
struggling with "data" more than the others. The definition in the -02 draft is 
an "array of strings representing the kinds of data being requested from the 
resource" and I'm honestly having a hard time understanding what that actually 
means or how it would be used in practice. And I'm not sure roughly equating it 
to “what kind of thing I want” helped me understand any better.

The idea behind the “locations”, “actions”, “data”, and “identifier” data 
element types mirrors what I’ve seen “scope” used for in the wild. They roughly 
equate to “where something is”, “what I want to do with it”, “what kind of 
thing I want”, and “the exact thing I want”, respectively. I’m completely open 
for better names, and have even been thinking “datatype” might be better than 
just “data” for the third one.

As for encoding, I think that form encoding makes sense because it’s the 
simplest possible encoding that will work. I personally don’t see a need to 
armor this part of the request with base64, as it is in JOSE, and doing so 
would make it one more step removed from easy developer understanding.

Just two questions...

1. What is the rationale that 'data' is really an array of arbitrary top-level 
claims? I find looking at the spec and not finding a 'data' section a little 
confusing.

2. What is the rationale for sending the JSON object as a urlencoded JSON 
string rather than a base64url encoded JSON string? The later would likely be 
smaller and easier to read:)

Hi all,??

I just published a draft about ???OAuth 2.0 Rich Authorization Requests??? 
(formerly known as ???structured scopes???).??

https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-lodderstedt-oauth-rar-02

It specifies a new parameter?????authorization_details"??that is used to carry 
fine grained authorization data in the OAuth authorization request. This 
mechanisms was designed based on experiences gathered in the field of open 
banking, e.g. PSD2, and is intended to make the implementation of rich and 
transaction oriented authorization requests much easier than with current OAuth 
2.0.

I???m happy that Justin Richer and Brian Campbell joined me as authors of this 
draft. We would would like to thank Daniel Fett, Sebastian Ebling, Dave Tonge, 
Mike Jones, Nat Sakimura, and Rob Otto for their valuable feedback during the 
preparation of this draft.

We look forward to getting your feedback.??

kind regards,
Torsten.??
