Hi All, I have a project which requires Node-Red to authenticate with a OAuth2 protected API. I have looked all over to find a flow which has already been built to do the initial communication with the API, but I can not find anything so far. I am new to node red, so unable to build from scratch at the moment.

Anybody able to offer some guidance with OAuth2 implementation in node-red?

many thanks  
R

you can try this node

Im currently using it in a application. However, it doesn't seem to be publicly installable on node red, so you may have to clone the repo, and install manually
