Abstract

This document describes a use case for delegating authorization by a Resource Owner to another user via a Client using the OAuth protocol. OAuth allows Clients to access server resources on behalf of another party (such as a different Client or an end-user). This document describes the use of OAuth for delegating one Client's authorization to another Client - a scenario, which is also known as four-legged authorization.
