#DiscordUser Connections

I currently have a slashy /link, which takes a gamerTag and GameConsole to link a (Player - Guild - DiscordUser) on a DB Table.

This can create some drama where players are linking to other gamerTags other than there own.

I wish to automate this process through the use of (Connections)[https://discord.com/developers/docs/tutorials/developing-a-user-installable-app#commands-in-the-sample-project] , since the Object contains the name of the connection. The Connections in question would be for PSN (playstation) and Xbox (xbox).

My previous observations discovered this information required an OAuth token, for which I do not implement.

With the introduction of (User-Installable App's)[https://discord.com/developers/docs/tutorials/developing-a-user-installable-app], is there a way for me to use DSP.Commands to obtain this connection info?

I see Discord are using /link as an example for a User-Installable App Command. (see pic) https://discord.com/developers/docs/tutorials/developing-a-user-installable-app#commands-in-the-sample-project

Do you have any suggestions on this topic?

Im not totally sure but i think you still have to provide an oauth2 endpoint for that. looking at the sample repo shows that they just send a message with a link for that command

DSP.Rest with the user token, yeah

i'm so excited for like fifty bug reports because dsp.rest is horrible but too few people use it to find the issues ioa

Ahhh tytyty, isn’t using user tokens frowned upon by the gods?

frank moth
#

you register it as a bearer token

naive lagoon
#

oauth user token != user token (used by the user clients)

frank moth
#

(which is why the oauth ones are called bearer tokens)

slate moth
#

Okay, I’ll have to go to my drawing board for this.

In the mean time, I’m going to assume these tokens expire, and a user would need to login in order for me to obtain their latest connection info ( users can change their PlayStation and Xbox usernames)

naive lagoon
#

you get a refresh token where you can refresh the bearer token, those have a pretty long expiration

slate moth
#

Ty, I guess I’ll be using the “SaveTokens” property of ASP.OAuth, would this be something Discord may have an issue with?

naive lagoon
#

dont think so, as long as you have a secure storage backend for asp.identity

#

as in not public when

#

but who exposes user dbs Clueless (/ref)

cough cough

cough.
