I went thru multiple posts saying how implicit grant is a security risk and why auth code grant with AJAX request to Authorization server should be used after redirecting to application (without client_secret passed to Auth server).
Now in 2019 there is no CORS issue as I can allow app domains on authrization server.
I have following concerns
If I use implicit grant:
If I use Auth code grant: Suppose if I hit AJAX request after getting redirected to my main application site, and get token in exchange of code,
What approach should be taken here? I am more inclined towards auth_code for SPA but the issue is how to deal with client_secret?
Thank you for reading.
