+# Code Flow
+
+This section defines the procedure for issuing short-lived bearer access
+tokens for use by the Receiving Server when accessing a resource shared
+through OCM.  The mechanism is aligned with the OAuth 2.0
+*authorization_code* grant type but is performed entirely as a
+server to server interaction between the Sending and Receiving Servers.
+No user interaction or redirect is involved. [RFC6749]
+
+##  Token Request
+
+To obtain an access token, the Receiving Server MUST send an HTTP POST
+request to the Sending Server’s tokenEndPoint as discovered in the
+OCM provider metadata.
+
+```
+POST {tokenEndPoint} HTTP/1.1
+Host: my-cloud-storage.org
+Date: Wed, 05 Nov 2025 14:00:00 GMT
+Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
+Digest: SHA-256=ok6mQ3WZzKc8nb7s/Jt2yY1uK7d2n8Zq7dhl3Q0s1xk=
+Content-Length: 101
+Signature-Input: sig1=("@method" "@target-uri" "content-digest" "date"); \
+                 created=1730815200; keyid="receiver.example.org#2025"; \

+
+grant_type=authorization_code&
+client_id=receiver.example.org&
+code=ABCD1234
+```
+
+The request MUST be signed using an HTTP Message Signature
+[RFC9421].  The `client_id` identifies the Receiving Server and MUST be
+set to its fully qualified domain name.  The `code` parameter carries the
+authorization code that was issued by the Sending Server in the Share
+Creation Notification. It is allowed to send the additional parameters
+defined in [RFC6749] for the authorization_code grant type, but they
+MUST be ignored.
+
+##  Token Response
+
+If the request is valid and the code is accepted, the Sending Server
+MUST respond with HTTP 200 OK and a JSON object containing the issued
+token:
+
+```
+{
+  "access_token": "8f3d3f26-f1e6-4b47-9e3e-9af6c0d4ad8b",
+  "token_type": "Bearer",
+  "expires_in": 300
+}
+```
+The `access_token` is an opaque bearer credential with no internal
+structure visible to the Receiving Server.  The token authorizes the
+Receiving Server to access the shared resource using the appropriate
+transport protocol (e.g., WebDAV).  The `expires_in` value indicates
+the token lifetime in seconds.  No `refresh_token` is issued, instead
+the same request to the tokenEndPoint MUST be repeated before the
+access_token has expired, to recieve a new `access_token` that can then
+be used in the same manner.
+
+##  Error Responses
+
+If the request is invalid, the Sending Server MUST return an HTTP 400
+response with a JSON object containing an OAuth 2.0 error code
+[RFC6749]:
+```
+{ "error": "invalid_request" }
+```
+
+Permitted error codes are `invalid_request`, `invalid_client`,
+`invalid_grant`, `unauthorized_client` and `unsupported_grant_type`.
