      parameter passed to the Token Endpoint defined in the extension.

   response_types
      OPTIONAL.  Array of the OAuth 2.0 response types that the Client
      may use.  These response types are defined as follows:

      *  "code": The Authorization Code response described in OAuth 2.0
         Section 4.1.

      *  "token": The Implicit response described in OAuth 2.0

   policy_uri
      OPTIONAL.  A URL location that the Client provides to the End-User
      to read about the how the profile data will be used.  The
      Authorization Server SHOULD display this URL to the End-User if it
      is given.

      OPTIONAL.  URL for the Client's JSON Web Key Set [JWK] document
      that is used for signing requests, such as requests to the Token
      Endpoint using the "private_key_jwt" assertion client credential.
      The keys MAY also be used for higher level protocols that require
      signing or encryption.

2.1.  Relationship Between Grant Types and Response Types

   The "grant_types" and "response_types" values described above are
   partially orthogonal, as they refer to arguments passed to different
   endpoints in the OAuth protocol.  However, they are related in that
   the "grant_types" available to a client influence the
   "response_types" that the client is allowed to use, and vice versa.
   For instance, a "grant_types" value that includes
   "authorization_code" implies a "response_types" value that includes
   code, as both values are defined as part of the OAuth 2.0
   Authorization Code Grant.  As such, a server supporting these fields
   SHOULD take steps to ensure that a client cannot register itself into
   an inconsistent state.

   The correlation between the two fields is listed in the table below.

   +-----------------------------------------------+-------------------+
   | grant_types value includes:                   | response_types    |
   |                                               | value includes:   |
   +-----------------------------------------------+-------------------+
   | authorization_code                            | code              |
   | implicit                                      | token             |
   | password                                      | (none)            |
   | client_credentials                            | (none)            |
   | refresh_token                                 | (none)            |
   | urn:ietf:params:oauth:grant-type:jwt-bearer   | (none)            |
   +-----------------------------------------------+-------------------+

   Extensions and profiles of this specification that introduce new
   values to either the "grant_types" or "response_types" parameter MUST
   document all correspondences between the parameter types.

3.  Client Registration Endpoint

   The Client Registration Endpoint is an OAuth 2.0 Endpoint defined in
   this document that is designed to allow a Client to register itself
   with the Authorization Server.  The Client Registration Endpoint MUST
   accept HTTP POST messages with request parameters encoded in the
   entity body using the "application/json" format.  The Client
   Registration Endpoint MUST be protected by a transport-layer security
   mechanism, and the server MUST support TLS 1.2 RFC 5246 [RFC5246] and

Richer, et al.         Expires September 19, 2013               [Page 7]
Internet-Draft               oauth-dyn-reg                    March 2013

   /or TLS 1.0 [RFC2246] and MAY support additional transport-layer
   mechanisms meeting its security requirements.  When using TLS, the
   Client MUST perform a TLS/SSL server certificate check, per RFC 6125
   [RFC6125].

   The Client Registration Endpoint MAY accept an initial authorization
   credential in the form of an OAuth 2.0 [RFC6749] access token in
   order to limit registration to only previously authorized parties.
   The method by which this access token is obtained by the registrant
   is generally out-of-band and is out of scope of this specification.

   In order to support open registration and facilitate wider
   interoperability, the Client Registration Endpoint SHOULD allow
   initial registration requests with no authentication.  These requests
   MAY be rate-limited or otherwise limited to prevent a denial-of-
   service attack on the Client Registration Endpoint.

   In order to facilitate registered clients updating their information,
   the Client Registration Endpoint issues a Request Access Token for
   clients to securely identify themselves in future connections to the
   Client Configuration Endpoint (Section 4).  As such, the Client
   Configuration Endpoint MUST accept requests with OAuth 2.0 Bearer
   Tokens [RFC6750] for these operations, whether or not the initial
   registration call requires authentication of some form.

   The Client Registration Endpoint MUST ignore all parameters it does
   not understand.

3.1.  Client Registration Request

   This operation registers a new Client to the Authorization Server.
   The Authorization Server assigns this client a unique Client
   Identifier, optionally assigns a Client Secret, and associates the
   metadata given in the request with the issued Client Identifier.  The
   request includes any parameters described in Client Metadata
   (Section 2) that the client wishes to specify for itself during the
   registration.  The Authorization Server MAY provision default values
   for any items omitted in the Client Metadata.

   The Client sends an HTTP POST to the Client Registration Endpoint
   with a content type of "application/json".  The HTTP Entity Payload
   is a JSON [RFC4627] document consisting of a JSON object and all
   parameters as top-level members of that JSON object.

   For example, a client could send the following registration request
   to the Client Registration Endpoint:

Richer, et al.         Expires September 19, 2013               [Page 8]
Internet-Draft               oauth-dyn-reg                    March 2013

   Following is a non-normative example request (with line wraps for
   display purposes only):

   POST /register HTTP/1.1
   Content-Type: application/json
   Accept: application/json
   Host: server.example.com

   {
    "redirect_uris":["https://client.example.org/callback",
       "https://client.example.org/callback2"]
    "client_name":"My Example Client",
    "token_endpoint_auth_method":"client_secret_basic",
    "scope":"read write dolphin",
    "logo_uri":"https://client.example.org/logo.png",
    "jwk_uri":"https://client.example.org/my_rsa_public_key.jwk"
   }

3.2.  Client Registration Response

   Upon successful registration, the Authorization Server generates a
   new Client Identifier for the client.  This Client Identifier MUST be
   unique at the server and MUST NOT be in use by any other client.  The
   server responds with an HTTP 201 Created code and a body of type
   "application/json" with content described in Client Information
   Response (Section 5.1).

   Upon an unsuccessful registration, the Authorization Server responds
   with an error as described in Client Registration Error
   (Section 5.2).

4.  Client Configuration Endpoint

   The Client Configuration Endpoint is an OAuth 2.0 protected endpoint
   that is provisioned by the server for a specific client to be able to
   view and update its registered information.  The Client MUST include
   its Registration Access Token in all calls to this endpoint as an
   OAuth 2.0 Bearer Token [RFC6750].

   Operations on this endpoint are switched through the use of different
   HTTP methods [RFC2616].

Richer, et al.         Expires September 19, 2013               [Page 9]
Internet-Draft               oauth-dyn-reg                    March 2013

4.1.  Forming the Client Configuration Endpoint URL

   The Authorization Server MUST provide the client with the fully
   qualified URL in the "registration_client_uri" element of the Client
   Information Response (Section 5.1).  The Authorization Server MUST
   NOT expect the client to construct or discover this URL on its own.
   The Client MUST use the URL as given by the server and MUST NOT
   construct this URL from component pieces.

   Depending on deployment characteristics, the Client Configuration
   Endpoint URL may take any number of forms.  It is RECOMMENDED that
   this endpoint URL be formed through the use of a server-constructed
   URL string which combines the Client Registration Endpoint's URL and
   the issued client_id for this Client, with the latter as either a
   path parameter or a query parameter.  For example, a Client with the
   Client ID "s6BhdRkqt3" could be given a Client Configuration Endpoint
   URL of "https://server.example.com/register/s6BhdRkqt3" (path
   parameter) or of "https://server.example.com/
   register?client_id=s6BhdRkqt3" (query parameter).  In both of these
   cases, the client simply follows the URL as given.

   These common patterns can help the Server to more easily determine
   the client to which the request pertains, which MUST be matched
   against the client to which the Registration Access Token was issued.
   If desired, the server MAY simply return the Client Registration
   Endpoint URL as the Client Configuration Endpoint URL and change
   behavior based on the authentication context provided by the
   Registration Access Token.

4.2.  Client Read Request

   In order to read the current configuration of the Client on the
   Authorization Server, the Client makes an HTTP GET request to the
   Client Configuration Endpoint, authenticating with its Registration
   Access Token.

   Following is a non-normative example request (with line wraps for
   display purposes only):

   GET /register/s6BhdRkqt3 HTTP/1.1
   Accept: application/json
   Host: server.example.com
   Authorization: Bearer reg-23410913-abewfq.123483

   Upon successful read of the information for a currently active
   Client, the Authorization Server responds with an HTTP 200 OK with

Richer, et al.         Expires September 19, 2013              [Page 10]
Internet-Draft               oauth-dyn-reg                    March 2013

   content type of "application/json" and a payload as described in
   Client Information Response (Section 5.1).

   If the client does not exist on this server, the server MUST return
   an HTTP 403 Forbidden.

   If the Client does not have permission to read its record, the server
   MUST return an HTTP 403 Forbidden.

4.3.  Client Update Request

   This operation updates a previously-registered client with new
   metadata at the Authorization Server.  This request is authenticated
   by the Registration Access Token issued to the client.

   The Client sends an HTTP PUT to the Client Configuration Endpoint
   with a content type of "application/json".  The HTTP Entity Payload
   is a JSON [RFC4627] document consisting of a JSON object and all
   parameters as top- level members of that JSON object.

   This request MUST include all fields described in Client Metadata
   (Section 2) as returned to the Client from a previous register, read,
   or update operation.  The Client MUST NOT include the
   "registration_access_token", "registration_client_uri", "expires_at",
   or "issued_at" fields described in Client Information Response
   (Section 5.1).

   Valid values of Client Metadata fields in this request MUST replace,
   not augment, the values previously associated with this Client.
   Omitted fields MUST be treated as null or empty values by the server.

   The Client MUST include its "client_id" field in the request, and it
   MUST be the same as its currently-issued Client Identifier.  If the
   client includes the "client_secret" field in the request, the value
   of this field MUST match the currently-issued Client Secret for that
   Client.  The Client MUST NOT be allowed to overwrite its existing
   Client Secret with its own chosen value.

   For all metadata fields, the Authorization Server MAY replace any
   invalid values with suitable default values, and it MUST return any
   such fields to the Client in the response.

   For example, a client could send the following request to the Client
   Registration Endpoint to update the client registration in the above
   example with new information:

   Following is a non-normative example request (with line wraps for
   display purposes only):

Richer, et al.         Expires September 19, 2013              [Page 11]
Internet-Draft               oauth-dyn-reg                    March 2013

   PUT /register/s6BhdRkqt3 HTTP/1.1
   Accept: application/json
   Host: server.example.com
   Authorization: Bearer reg-23410913-abewfq.123483

   {
    "client_id":"s6BhdRkqt3",
    "client_secret": "cf136dc3c1fc93f31185e5885805d",
    "redirect_uris":["https://client.example.org/callback",
       "https://client.example.org/alt"],
    "scope": "read write dolphin",
    "grant_types": ["authorization_code", "refresh_token"]
    "token_endpoint_auth_method": "client_secret_basic",
    "jwk_uri": "https://client.example.org/my_rsa_public_key.jwk"
    "client_name":"My New Example",
    "logo_uri":"https://client.example.org/newlogo.png"
   }

   Upon successful update, the Authorization Server responds with an
   HTTP 200 OK Message with content type "application/json" and a
   payload as described in Client Information Response (Section 5.1).
   The Authorization Server MAY include a new Client Secret and/or
   Registration Access Token in its response.  If so, the Client MUST
   immediately discard its previous Client Secret and/or Registration
   Access Token.

   If the Client does not exist on this server, the server MUST return
   an HTTP 403 Forbidden.

   If the Client is not allowed to update its records, the server MUST
   respond with HTTP 403 Forbidden.

   If the Client attempts to set an invalid metadata field and the
   Authorization Server does not set a default value, the Authorization
   Server responds with an error as described in Client Registration
   Error Response (Section 5.2).

4.4.  Client Delete Request

   [[ Editor's note: The utility and nature of this function are still
   under active discussion.  This is a proposed set of functionality
   that a server MAY choose to implement, else give a 405 response to
   any client that tries, if it can't support it.  ]]

Richer, et al.         Expires September 19, 2013              [Page 12]
Internet-Draft               oauth-dyn-reg                    March 2013

   In order to deprovision itself on the Authorization Server, the
   Client makes an HTTP DELETE request to the Client Configuration
   Endpoint.  This request is authenticated by the Registration Access
   Token issued to the client.

   Following is a non-normative example request (with line wraps for
   display purposes only):

   DELETE /register/s6BhdRkqt3 HTTP/1.1
   Accept: application/json
   Host: server.example.com
   Authorization: Bearer reg-23410913-abewfq.123483

   A successful delete action will invalidate the client_id,
   client_secret, and registration_access_token for this client, thereby
   preventing the client_id from being used at either the Authorization
   Endpoint or Token Endpoint of the Authorization Server.  The
   Authorization Server SHOULD immediately invalidate all existing
   authorization grants and currently-active tokens associated with this
   Client.

   If a Client has been successfully deprovisioned, the Authorization
   Server responds with an HTTP 204 No Content message.

   If there is no such client, the server responds with an HTTP 403
   Forbidden.

   If the client is not allowed to delete itself, the server responds
   with HTTP 403 Forbidden.

   If the server does not support the delete method, it responds with an
   HTTP 405 Not Supported.

   Following is a non-normative example response:

   HTTP/1.1 204 No Content
   Cache-Control: no-store
   Pragma: no-cache

5.  Responses

   In response to certain requests from the Client to either the Client
   Registration Endpoint or the Client Configuration Endpoint as
   described in this specification, the Authorization Server sends the
   following response bodies.

5.1.  Client Information Response

   The response contains the Client Identifier as well as the Client
   Secret, if the Client is a confidential Client.  The response also
   contains the fully qualified URL to the Client Configuration Endpoint
   for this specific client that the client may use to obtain and update
   information about itself.  The response also contains a Registration
   Access Token that is to be used by the client to perform subsequent
   operations at the Client Configuration Endpoint.

   client_id
      REQUIRED.  The unique Client identifier, MUST NOT be currently
      valid for any other registered Client.

   client_secret
      OPTIONAL.  The Client secret.  If issued, this MUST be unique for
      each "client_id".  This value is used by confidential clients to
      authenticate to the Token Endpoint as described in OAuth 2.0
      Section 2.3.1.

   expires_at
      REQUIRED if "client_secret" is issued.  The number of seconds from
      1970-01-01T0:0:0Z as measured in UTC that the "client_secret" will
      expire or "0" if it does not expire.  See RFC 3339 [RFC3339] for
      details regarding date/times in general and UTC in particular.

   issued_at
      OPTIONAL.  Specifies the timestamp when the Client Identifier was
      issued.  The timestamp value MUST be a positive integer.  The
      value is expressed in the number of seconds since January 1, 1970
      00:00:00 GMT.

   registration_access_token
      REQUIRED.  The Access token to be used by the client to perform
      actions on the Client Configuration Endpoint.

   registration_client_uri
      REQUIRED.  The fully qualified URL of the Client Configuration
      Endpoint for this client.  The Client MUST use this URL as given
      when communicating with the Client Configuration Endpoint.

Richer, et al.         Expires September 19, 2013              [Page 14]
Internet-Draft               oauth-dyn-reg                    March 2013

   Additionally, the Authorization Server MUST return all registered
   metadata (Section 2) about this client, including any fields
   provisioned by the Authorization Server itself.  The Authorization
   Server MAY reject or replace any of the client's requested metadata
   values submitted during the registration or update requests and
   substitute them with suitable values.

   The response is an "application/json" document with all parameters as
   top-level members of a JSON object [RFC4627].

   Following is a non-normative example response:

   HTTP/1.1 200 OK
   Content-Type: application/json
   Cache-Control: no-store
   Pragma: no-cache

   {
    "registration_access_token": "reg-23410913-abewfq.123483",
    "registration_client_uri":
          "https://server.example.com/register/s6BhdRkqt3",
    "client_id":"s6BhdRkqt3",
    "client_secret": "cf136dc3c1fc93f31185e5885805d",
    "expires_at":2893276800
    "redirect_uris":["https://client.example.org/callback",
       "https://client.example.org/callback2"]
    "scope": "read write dolphin",
    "grant_types": ["authorization_code", "refresh_token"]
    "token_endpoint_auth_method": "client_secret_basic",
    "logo_uri": "https://client.example.org/logo.png",
    "jwk_uri": "https://client.example.org/my_rsa_public_key.jwk"
   }

5.2.  Client Registration Error Response

   When an OAuth 2.0 error condition occurs, such as the client
   presenting an invalid Registration Access Token, the Authorization
   Server returns an Error Response as defined in Section 5.2 of the
   OAuth 2.0 specification.

   When a registration error condition occurs, the Authorization Server
   returns an HTTP 400 status code with content type "application/json"
   consisting of a JSON object [RFC4627] describing the error in the
   response body.

   The JSON object contains two members:

Richer, et al.         Expires September 19, 2013              [Page 15]
Internet-Draft               oauth-dyn-reg                    March 2013

   error
      The error code, a single ASCII string.

   error_description
      A human-readable text description of the error for debugging.

   This specification defines the following error codes:

   invalid_redirect_uri
      The value of one or more "redirect_uris" is invalid.

   invalid_client_metadata
      The value of one of the client metadata (Section 2) fields is
      invalid and the server has rejected this request.  Note that an
      Authorization server MAY choose to substitute a valid value for
      any requested parameter of a client's metadata.

   invalid_client_id
      Value of "client_id" is invalid.

   Following is a non-normative example of an error response (with line
   wraps for display purposes only):

   HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request
   Content-Type: application/json
   Cache-Control: no-store
   Pragma: no-cache

   {
    "error":"invalid_redirect_uri",
    "error_description":"The redirect URI of http://sketchy.example.com
      is not allowed for this server."
   }

6.  IANA Considerations

   This document makes no requests of IANA.

7.  Security Considerations

   Since requests to the Client Registration Endpoint result in the
   transmission of clear-text credentials (in the HTTP request and
   response), the server MUST require the use of a transport-layer
   security mechanism when sending requests to the Registration
   Endpoint.  The server MUST support TLS 1.2 RFC 5246 [RFC5246] and/or
   TLS 1.0 [RFC2246] and MAY support additional transport-layer
   mechanisms meeting its security requirements.  When using TLS, the

Richer, et al.         Expires September 19, 2013              [Page 16]
Internet-Draft               oauth-dyn-reg                    March 2013

   Client MUST perform a TLS/SSL server certificate check, per RFC 6125
   [RFC6125].

   As this endpoint is an OAuth 2.0 Protected Resource, requests to the
   Registration Endpoint SHOULD have some rate limiting on failures to
   prevent the Registration Access Token from being disclosed though
   repeated access attempts.

   The authorization server MUST treat all client metadata as self-
   asserted.  A rogue Client might use the name and logo for the
   legitimate Client, which it is trying to impersonate.  An
   Authorization Server needs to take steps to mitigate this phishing
   risk, since the logo could confuse users into thinking they're
   logging in to the legitimate Client.  For instance, an Authorization
   Server could warn if the domain/site of the logo doesn't match the
   domain/site of redirect URIs.  An Authorization Server can also
   present warning messages to end users about untrusted Clients in all
   cases, especially if such clients have been dynamically registered
   and have not been trusted by any users at the Authorization Server
   before.

   In a situation where the Authorization Server is supporting open
   Client registration, it must be extremely careful with any URL
   provided by the Client that will be displayed to the user (e.g.
   "logo_uri" and "policy_uri").  A rogue Client could specify a
   registration request with a reference to a drive-by download in the
   "policy_uri".  The Authorization Server should check to see if the
   "logo_uri" and "policy_uri" have the same host as the hosts defined
   in the array of "redirect_uris".

   While the Client Secret can expire, the Registration Access Token
   should not expire while a client is still actively registered.  If
   this token were to expire, a Client could be left in a situation
   where it has no means of updating itself and must register itself
   anew.  As the Registration Access Tokens are long-term credentials,
   and since the Registration Access Token is a Bearer token and acts as
   the sole authentication for use at the Client Configuration Endpoint,
   it MUST be protected by the Client as described in OAuth 2.0 Bearer
   [RFC6750].

   If a Client is deprovisioned from a server, any outstanding
   Registration Access Tokens for that client MUST be invalidated at the
   same time.  Otherwise, this can lead to an inconsistent state wherein
   a Client could make requests to the Client Configuration Endpoint
   where the authentication would succeed but the action would fail
   because the Client is no longer valid.

   o  Formalized name of "OAuth 2.0" throughout document

   o  Added JWT Bearer Assertion and SAML 2 Bearer Assertion to example
      grant types

   o  Added response_types parameter and explanatory text on its use
      with and relationship to grant_types

   -07

   o  Changed registration_access_url to registration_client_uri

   o  Fixed missing text in 5.1
