Authenticate App User with Pandora
This tutorial shows the basic steps need for user authentication and authorization. The user is put through an OAuth 2.0 allowing a third party to access the Pandora API on their behalf. This tutorial uses the classic authorization code grant flow, but the device flow grant could be used instead for input-constrained devices. A use case for this flow is a user authorizing a web client to access Pandora APIs on their behalf. The web client uses an access token to look up details about the user, fetch playlists, etc.
The steps include:
- Authentication & Authorization
- Get access token
- Query a Pandora resource
- (Optional) Refresh access token after expiry
