API Integration Permission Scopes

To give your API integration access to the capabilities of Marketing Cloud Engagement, assign it permission scopes in Installed Packages. A scope usually represents a collection of related permissions and behaviors. Assign only the scopes that your package needs. To learn about how these scopes map to permission IDs and API resources, see REST Permissions and Scopes.

Server-to-server integrations that use the Client Credentials grant type perform tasks on behalf of the integration. The scopes that you assign to these integrations represent the capabilities that the integration can access.

Web app and public app integrations that use the Authorization Code grant type perform tasks on behalf of an end user. These integrations use the permissions that the app and the user have in common. The scopes that you assign to these integrations represent which features the integration can access. However, the scopes don’t account for the functionality that the end user can access. To request and compare scopes against user permissions, issue a GET request to the v2/userinfo endpoint after your app completes the authorization code flow.
