How to configure OAuth2 authentication in WeWeb?

Step 1: Access WeWeb Dashboard

First things first, log in to the WeWeb platform and head over to the dashboard. This is where all the magic begins for setting up your app.

Step 2: Go to Integrations

Once you're on the dashboard, look for the "Integrations" section in the menu. Click on it to get to the integrations page where you can manage your OAuth2 settings.

Step 3: Add New OAuth2 Integration

On the Integrations page, find the option to add a new OAuth2 integration. Usually, this means clicking a button that says "Add Integration" and then picking OAuth2 from the list.

Step 4: Configure OAuth2 Details

A form will pop up where you need to fill in the OAuth2 details:

  • Client ID: Enter the Client ID given by your OAuth2 provider.
  • Client Secret: Enter the Client Secret key.
  • Authorization URL: Put in the URL where users will be sent for authentication.
  • Token URL: Enter the URL where your app can get the access token.
  • Redirect URI: Type in the redirect URI that will handle the OAuth2 response.

Step 5: Set Scopes and Endpoints

Specify the scopes your app will ask permissions for. Scopes define what level of access you're requesting, like reading user data or changing resources. Also, make sure all endpoint URLs are filled in correctly.

Step 6: Save Configuration

After you've entered all the details, click on the "Save" or "Apply" button to save the configuration. Double-check there are no errors and that everything is saved properly.

Step 7: Test the Integration

Test the OAuth2 integration by starting an authentication flow. This usually means clicking a "Test" button or trying to log in through your app to make sure the OAuth2 setup works as it should.

Step 8: Monitor and Adjust

After testing, keep an eye on the authentication process to make sure it runs smoothly. Adjust settings if any issues come up or if you need different scopes or endpoints.
