OAuth2 is an authentication protocol that allows you to authorize applications to access your data.
It is the successor to the OAuth 1.0 protocol and is designed to provide a more secure and efficient way to authorize applications.

OAuth2 provides a standard, secure method for these interactions.
For instance, you can tell Twitter that you agree that the site on the domain example. com is allowed to access your profile information (like name and email) without sharing your password with example. com.

1๏ธโฃ How does it work?
OAuth2 works by delegating user authentication to the service that hosts the user account and authorizing third-party applications to access the user account.
You log in to the OAuth2 provider with your login and password.

You log in to the OAuth2 provider with your login and password.
When the OAuth2 provider verifies your identity, it issues an access token.
This token is then used to access the 3rd party application.
The token usually has an expiration time.
It means the application must request a new token when the old one expires.
