After adding the application it will show up in a list-type format pictured below.
Supported devices include the list shown below.
You can select the supported devices for your application in MOTAR Studio.
Permission Scopes are listed under that section. Your application will start off with a blank list of permission scopes, it's up to you the developer to add/determine which ones you will be using!
Here you can generate your Client ID and Client Secret keys for your application. These are used to help the SSO know what app you are attempting to login to, along with a few other things.
Redirect URIs are set here following this format yourvalue://redirect
It is optional to set desktop launch URI. This will enable a launch button when a student opens a lesson using your app in the MOTAR dashboard. You can select whether or not you want an auth code to be passed along with the lesson ID in the redirect in the dialog box.
An auth-code can be used to generate an auth token and refresh token. When your app is launched as part of a lesson, you can use the auth code to start a student session without the student logging in again. Use the Generate Auth Token API method to create an auth and refresh token.
