From all-or-nothing to task-based OAuth consent

Radar analysis

Cloudflare adds task‑based OAuth consent, allowing apps to request optional scopes so users can grant only the permissions needed for a specific task.

Why it matters: Gives users finer‑grained control over their data, reduces over‑permissioning, and helps developers implement more secure, user‑friendly authorization flows.
