Firefox Accounts#
The Firefox Accounts provider is currently limited to Mozilla relying services but there is the intention, in the future, to allow third-party services to delegate authentication. There is no committed timeline for this.
- The provider is OAuth2 based. More info:
The following Firefox Accounts settings are available:
SOCIALACCOUNT_PROVIDERS = {
'fxa': {
'SCOPE': ['profile'],
'OAUTH_ENDPOINT': 'https://oauth.accounts.firefox.com/v1',
'PROFILE_ENDPOINT': 'https://profile.accounts.firefox.com/v1',
}
}
- SCOPE:
Requested OAuth2 scope. Default is [‘profile’], which will work for applications on the Mozilla trusted whitelist. If your application is not on the whitelist, then define SCOPE to be [‘profile:email’, ‘profile:uid’].
- OAUTH_ENDPOINT:
Explicitly set the OAuth2 endpoint. Default is the production endpoint “https://oauth.accounts.firefox.com/v1”.
- PROFILE_ENDPOINT:
Explicitly set the profile endpoint. Default is the production endpoint and is “https://profile.accounts.firefox.com/v1”.
