I might qualify them by "the redirection URIs defined in [OAuth]", and simply make claims redirection URIs definitionally distinct, if still in the same class of things.

You can probably remove the word 'regular' entirely. Doing so might even improve clarity, particularly for non-US readers.

That's fine. Seems odd to call it "regular" but I see what you're getting at. I don't have a better suggestion at the moment.

After James pinged me with some comments suggesting more normative-ness in a specific direction, I thought I'd try out this variant:

"Note that claims redirection URIs are different from regular OAuth redirection URIs in that they are intended for the exclusive use of requesting parties and not resource owners. Therefore, authorization servers MUST NOT redirect requesting parties to regular pre-registered OAuth redirection URIs unless such URIs are also pre-registered as claims redirection URIs."

The important thing is that it’s two different values from the perspective of the AS. Thus two different field names in the client data model. The AS should never compare them to each other nor be given a hint that it should (as the text below suggests).

Ah, okay. The rationale got lost in the shuffle. The original is in the right direction, but needs more explanation and disambiguation, I think:

"Because the claims redirection URIs of a client are intended for the exclusive use of requesting parties and not resource owners, if a client pre-registers redirection URIs at all, any claims redirection URIs must be different from any other redirection URIs to be used by the authorization endpoint during redirect-based OAuth flows."

Is this accurate?

Remember, we’re folding together the *back* channel and not the *front* channel, because the parties are different on the front channel in UMA vs. OAuth (namely, RqP vs. RO). The claims_redirect_uri and redirect_uri are all about returning data from the front channel. We’ve gotten rid of the rpt_endpoint because that was a special back channel endpoint that’s no longer necessary. > > If we were using the authorization endpoint then we could use the same redirect_uri as in OAuth, but we’re not. Why aren’t we? Because then the RqP would need to be treated much like a RO at the resource server — which is to say, Bob needs to be treated like Alice. But it’s not Bob’s server and we can’t (and shouldn’t) assume that he’ll be treated the same as she will. Recall that this mistaken assumption is at the core of deployment issues with the AAT for anything beyond a very narrow ecosystem where everyone is using the same AS. > > — Justin > >> On Oct 16, 2016, at 2:17 PM, Eve Maler wrote: >> >> Cigdem did a close reading of the spec draft, for which I'm grateful.
