Specifications and Auxiliary Documents
This page collects specifications and auxiliary documents produced by the Work Group.
We use https://github.com/KantaraInitiative/wg-uma for active spec development, with snapshots provided on the docs.kantarainitiative.org site.
The UMA technical specifications have reached Version 1.0 finalization and V1.0.1 draft specifications representing a "patch release" are out for review.
- The draft V1.0.1 specs include the UMA Core V1.0.1 specification and the OAuth RSR V1.0.1 specification.
- The normative V1.0 specs include the final UMA Core V1.0 specification (Kantara Recommendation, IETF I-D rev 13) and the OAuth Resource Set Registration V1.0 specification (Kantara Recommendation, IETF I-D rev 06), dated 4 April 2015. The latter specification was originally derived from UMA design work, but is suitable for use by OAuth and OpenID Connect as well.
The following auxiliary documents are currently non-normative:
- Binding Obligations on User-Managed Access (UMA) Participants (latest version, pretty-printed) (most recent IETF I-D, possibly somewhat out of date wrt the KI version)
