Spring Tips: The Spring Authorization Server

Hi, Spring fans! In this installment, Josh Long looks at the fantastic Spring Authorization Server, the easy button for integrating and deploying OAuth and OIDC support for your Spring Boot applications! In this video we'll take our first steps setting up an OAuth authorization server, and securing an HTTP API with it.

It would have been less confusing if the names used were non-generic. "client", "spring" as values create confusion - one doesn't know at first glance if it is a user defined value, or something that you have to use as is. "client" and "spring" also happen to occur in property keys - not just here but in the larger spring/java ecosystem which adds to the confusion. Had to watch it back and forth several times to make sense.

Very relevant, thank you!! Just finished my own YouTube series building a web app using Google Sign-on JWTs as my authorization server with Spring Boot/Spring Security as my resource server. I'd like to extend the series to include a custom Spring Authorization server :)

followed this to the letter but for some reason I am getting a whitelabel "/error" is there something I am missing? its saying too many redirects 🤔

Hi Josh, awesome video as always. Would it be possible to extend this example to multiple different identity providers in the authorization server and how would this be done, since the idp will generate the token but the client will validate against the Authorization Server?

Hey Josh, you are the man as usual....although I do have 1 question, how does the user logout? Cheers

Great video Josh. My use case is internel app eg APIs -> gateway -> resource server. Can I use the oauth2 server in this scenario?

if you speak "slower", it could help non-english speakers to understand you better.

Please lose the "30 seconds later" animations. They are only annoying, adding nothing to the video.
