======
OAuth2
======
Nextcloud allows connecting external services (for example Moodle) to your Nextcloud.
This is done via ``OAuth2``. See `RFC6749 <https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6749>`_ for the
OAuth2 specification.
.. note:: Nextcloud does only support confidential clients.
Add an OAuth2 Application
-------------------------
Head over to your Administrator Security Settings. Here you can add a new ``OAuth2`` client.
.. figure:: images/oauth2-settings.png
Enter the name of your application and provide a redirection url.
You should now have a Client Identifier and Secret. Enter those into your ``OAuth2`` client.
Please provide the OAuth2 application the following details:
Authorization endpoint: SERVER/apps/oauth2/authorize
Token endpoint: SERVER/apps/oauth2/api/v1/token
The access token
----------------
The access token obtained is a so called Bearer token. Which means that for request to the
Nextcloud server you will have to send the proper authorization header.
Authorization: Bearer <TOKEN>
Note that apache by default strips this. Make sure you have ``mod_rewrite`` and ``mod_env`` enabled.
