oAuth (v2) + 2FA are there some examples out there?

[Vik Shah]

— UPDATE — 

I’ve been alerted to some documentation for implementing oAuth in Studio 6.1.2 (p.g. 35 — 38) and similar documentation exists in Extending Omnis manual for Studio 8.x (p.g. 111 — 113).

Feeling dumb here for not looking in the manuals. 

I’ll see if this documentation helps me out and perhaps in the process create a small example and some additional documentation too.

If someone out there is using oAuth for other purposes than just emails or SMTP related, I’d love to know please.

I’d still like to have the username in the database (user email or whatever is used as an username) and assign security privileges to it so that I can track the user throughout the system and keep things tied down.
