Step 2: Request user for authorization

Prerequisites

• Create authorization request link

User Authorization

To obtain authorization for your app:

1. Send the request authorization link to the user.
   For more information, see Create authorization request link.
2. Request the user to open the request authorization link in their browser.
   Using our earlier example, the user opens the following link in their browser:

https://miro.com/oauth/authorize?response_type=code&client_id=3074457363680401096&redirect_uri=https://localhost:3000/&state=123xyz&team_id=3074457362577833142

The Install & authorize page appears in the user's browser.

3. The user must click the Install & authorize button.

4. Miro redirects the user to the redirect_uri provided in your authorization request link.
   The redirect URI also contains the following response data:

   • A temporary authorization code in the code parameter. The client app uses the authorization code to obtain an access token. The authorization code can only be used once and it expires 10 minutes after being issued. Note this code as you need it in the next step of the authorization flow.

   • If you provided a value for the state parameter in the authorization request link, the same state string is returned in the state parameter.

Using our earlier example, the user is redirected to the following URI as a response:

https://localhost:3000/?code= eyJtaXJvLm9yaWdpbiI6ImV1MDEifQ_IIze1u&state=123xyz&client_id=3074457363680401096&team_id=3074457362577833142
