Resource Indicators

• Goal: provide a mechanism for clients to specify which resource servers they intend to access.
• Action: implement the use of resource indicators to issue access tokens that are scoped to the specified resource server(s).
• Benefits: Increased security by ensuring that access tokens are limited to specific resource servers, reducing the risk of token misuse and unauthorized access.
• When: Q2 2024.
