OAuth

OAuth (Open Authorization) is an open standard for token-based authentication and authorization.

Some of the destinations that LiveRamp integrates with (such as Pinterest and Snapchat) use OAuth authorization for security (see the "Destinations That Require Authorization Using OAuth" section below for a complete list). To distribute data to an OAuth destination, there must be a valid OAuth authorization from a user at your company with the appropriate permission level at that destination.

When you're creating or editing a destination connection for a destination that requires OAuth, you will need to create a new connection. For more information, see "Create a Destination Connection" and "Edit the Configuration for a Destination Connection".
