In this chapter, I show you how to implement OAuth 2.0-based authorization in ASP.NET Web API from scratch, using two ASP.NET MVC web applications, so that you understand the nuts and bolts of OAuth 2.0. The objective of this chapter is to help you gain in-depth knowledge of how the authorization code grant type of OAuth 2.0 works by building a working example from the ground up. I focus my coverage on the authorization code grant type for this exercise because it involves a more complex flow than the other grant types.
