Example on how to authorize custom app on behalf of user

[ItsMeStevieG]

I need to authenticate (like Beacon does) to gain access to boost history and server boosted days.

Any help? I need a PHP example on how to authenticate.

You are so right. I try to code something for my server, so player's can see server status, suspend time, current player number for each map and so on, but i fail to show this to website visitors, because they don't have authorisation to API. Maybe someone can help me?

I am working on something at the moment which will allow this functionality. I’ll keep you posted

Check out what I made oauth2-nitrado. Hope this helps :)

Could you explain why this was close without resolving? Nobody provided any examples of usage

Sorry for the missunderstanding Stevie G (@ItsMeStevieG) - I thought you provided your working example ;)
All available API endpoints are provided here: https://doc.nitrado.net/

Any specific endpoint with which you are struggling with?

Timo (@NitradoTimo) Yes I had provided a 3rd part authentication Example. Perhaps you could include some example of usage (especially oAuth) in the readme for the PHP API. This might clear up some confusion on the API :) If you provide this I'm sure this would be sufficient for what most users have had issues with.

Perhaps list the process of creating a long life token in the Nitrado site, or how to do on the fly authentication. Thanks
