I’m unable to locate any documentation that describes the differences between these two APIs.
Does calling Dynamic Client Registration API create Applications?
When would I use one over the other?
Hello,
The Dynamic Client Registration endpoint creates an OAuth2/OIDC application in Okta. It can only be used for these application types and does not return other attributes that are associated with Okta Apps in general (OAuth2/OIDC, SAML, SWA).
It mostly conforms to the contracts of:
RFC7591: OAuth 2.0 Dynamic Client Registration Protocol
OpenID Connect Dynamic Client Registration 1.0
The /apps API can also be used for OAuth2/OIDC applications as well as other application types. When creating/retrieving an OAuth2/OIDC application from the /apps endpoint the information from the dynamic clients endpoint will be embedded in the rest of the Okta application data.
Thank You,
