Question about Oauth2 implementation details

Hi,

Currently I am using Samsara Legacy API. The authorization logic atm is using the api key.
But I saw, that there is oaut2 mention. We prefer to use oauth2 based authorizations, to add additional level of security - using static api key is not as secure as oaut2.

So, for Oauth2 related info I see in the docs: https://www.samsara.com/api-legacy#section/Authentication/OAuth2 just that table.

From where can we get more info, about:

  • how it must be implemented
  • do we need to create app, which will be installed per client, with permissions .. etc
  • what are the possible scopes
  • possible examples, for:
  • authorization, eg initiall "install" request
  • refresh /get new token pairs/
