    I don’t understand the argument you’re trying to make, Philip.

    Sign in with Apple works on all devices including the web and Android. They specifically said so during the Platform State of the Union a few hours ago.

    It’s tied to your AppleID, not your device.

    Wow. Apple sign-in support is mandatory? https://developer.apple.com/news/?id=06032019j
    Aaron Parecki
    Sounds like they are requiring Apple Sign-In to be an option if any other third party sign-in is also provided. Good move IMO, better for users! This will stop apps from having just a "Sign in with Facebook" option.

    Oof no discovery document? Blah
    Aaron Parecki
    Not that I've been able to find! Also can't find their userinfo or introspection endpoints. I also had to guess their authorization endpoint because it's not in their docs.

    No token binding? 😒
    Aaron Parecki
    So far there's no docs on what you can do with the access token. I suspect using it may require also including the client_secret which is a signed JWT, or who knows. Here's the working code: https://github.com/aaronpk/sign-in-with-apple-example

    Do you know if I can request users profile picture ?
    Aaron Parecki
    So far there is no indication that'll be possible.

    weirdnesses:

    • Their token endpoint requires setting a User-Agent header, otherwise responds with an HTML error
    • Client secrets are a signed JWT using ECDSA + SHA256
    • An email address isn't returned even when requesting the `email` scope

    If you're interested, here is my sample code I was able to use to get an access token and ID token from Apple

    Oh, nice, where did you find the details?
    Aaron Parecki
    They have some docs here https://developer.apple.com/sign-in-with-apple/get-started/ but their docs are missing quite a bit right now. I had to guess at some endpoints and things.

    Some ppl pointed out this is probably “just” an implementation of OAuth w/ email forwarding on top.

    That’s probably correct. However, what sets Apple apart from the other major OAuth providers (mainly Facebook & Google) is that Apple is not in the business of selling your data.
    Aaron Parecki
    I just tried it out and it's OAuth + OpenID Connect with a little bit of Apple uniqueness sprinkled in.

    Initial test of the "Sign in with Apple" API:

    • It's more or less based on OAuth + OIDC
    • Their documentation is missing a lot of key info to use it right now, I had to guess at a lot of things
    • The `sub` claim includes some sort of unique user identifier, not an email

    The more I look at the #indieweb stuff (the tech, the community, the overall philosophy) the more I keep thinking I should start a new blog and just write.

    No more being tied to an agenda, just writing to satisfy myself.

Hi, I'm Aaron Parecki, Director of Identity Standards at Okta, and co-founder of IndieWebCamp. I maintain oauth.net, write and consult about OAuth, and participate in the OAuth Working Group at the IETF. I also help people learn about video production and livestreaming. (detailed bio)

I've been tracking my location since 2008 and I wrote 100 songs in 100 days. I've spoken at conferences around the world about owning your data, OAuth, quantified self, and explained why R is a vowel. Read more.
