5.2.3. Authorization Server Fetches Request Object

5.2.3. Authorization Server Fetches Request Object​

Upon receipt of the Request, the authorization server MUST send an HTTP GET request to the request_uri to retrieve the referenced Request Object unless the Request Object is stored in a way so that the server can retrieve it through other mechanisms securely and parse it to recreate the authorization request parameters.

The following is an example of this fetch process. In this example, a trusted third-party service hosts the Request Object.

GET /request.jwt/GkurKxf5T0Y-mnPFCHqWOMiZi4VS138cQO_V7PZHAdM HTTP/1.1
Host: tfp.example.org

The following is an example of the fetch response:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK

Content-type: application/oauth-authz-req+jwt
