oAuth Scopes

Understanding scopes for oAuth Apps

Scopes let you specify exactly what type of access you need from users of Signeasy. Scopes limit access for oAuth access tokens. They do not grant any additional permission beyond that which the user already has.

When authorizing a Signeasy oAuth app, requested scopes are displayed to the user on the authorization form.
