Dailymotion OAuth Integration
Connect Dailymotion to your application without building and maintaining the OAuth flow.
Dailymotion is a video hosting and sharing platform. Each user connects their own Dailymotion account through your OAuth app. Pathfix manages the authorization flow, stores and refreshes their tokens, and authenticates the requests your application makes to the Dailymotion API. What your integration does with that access is up to your code.
How Pathfix helps
- 01
OAuth authorization
Pathfix runs the authorization flow with your Dailymotion OAuth app, so users approve access on Dailymotion’s own consent screen.
- 02
Token management
Each user’s access and refresh tokens are stored by Pathfix rather than in your application.
- 03
Token refresh
Where Dailymotion issues refresh tokens, Pathfix refreshes them as they expire, so connections keep working after the first authorization.
- 04
Authenticated API passthrough
Your application sends Dailymotion API requests through Pathfix, which adds the connected user’s credentials before passing them on to Dailymotion.
You own the Dailymotion OAuth application and its credentials, and your code implements the API logic.
