Connector with OAuth 2.0, no authorization URL or refresh URL

Hello,

 

I have been exploring the possibility of creating some custom connectors, however I keep running into the same challenge.

 

There are manAPIs out there that implement an OAuth 2.0 authentication flow without the Authorization URL and Refresh URL component. So, you sign up for the API, they give you a Client ID and Client Secret and a Token URL. You obtain an access token from that Token URL and then sign subsequent requests with a Bearer Token authorization header. That token lasts for like 5 minutes, and then you need to request a new one.

 

Again, there is not Authorization URL. There is no refresh token route. Just the ClientId, ClientSecret, and Token URL. This is a very common configuration for APIs.

 

But it seems like when I create a custom connector, I can only integrate with APIs that implement an Authorization and Refresh URL. Can you please confirm for me whether this is correct? And, will Power Automate ever support OAuth strategy where only ClientId, ClientSecret, and Token URL are defined?

 

Thank you,
Alec
