All requests to a Smart API must include an access token. Getting an access token starts with authenticating a user, but user authentication is simply step one of the authorization process.

Authorization flow is a term comprising all of the steps involved with getting an access token.

You can find OAuth flow, protocol flow, and other terms describing authorization, but this documentation uses the term authorization flow.

When you register your Smart Client with Smart API Manager, you must specify an authorization flow. For details, see Smart Clients.
