NetSuite Professionals

Hello,
Do you usually use OAuth 2.0? or OAuth 1.0?
I have an impression that no one is using OAuth 2.0 :man-shrugging:

OAuth 2.0 Authorization Code Grant is useless

OAuth 2.0 Client Credentials might not be useless, but too hard to implement

Sometimes the clients find it hard to implement OAuth1.0

that wont improve trying to do client credentials

at least with oauth 1 the library support is more mature

netsuite's client credentials use the draft client assertions

which is gonna be harder to find support for

isn't OAuth 2.0 more secure than OAuth 1.0?

normally not, but id guess that netsuite's implementation of jwts makes it more secure

id expect OAuth 2.0 Client Credentials to be better after they fix their documentation

if/when netsuite deprecates TBA, you probably will have to switch to client credentials

<@U5TF1GQ20> You mention the following:
&gt; id expect OAuth 2.0 Client Credentials to be better after they fix their documentation
Do you know which statements in the documentation for OAuth 2.0 Client Credentials and The Request Token Structure is incorrect and what it should read instead?

Were you able to get OAuth 2.0 Client Credentials working?

got it working, but I dont trust something where the documentation is wrong

its actually slightly less wrong than it was before, which is absurd since that means they fixed the documentation a little and left the rest of it wrong
