Context
In OAuth 2.0 an authorization grant is defined as:
An authorization grant is a credential representing the resource owner's authorization (to access its protected resources) used by the client to obtain an access token. This specification defines four grant types -- authorization code, implicit, resource owner password credentials, and client credentials -- as well as an extensibility mechanism for defining additional types.
Later use extended grant types to include authorization for users to get access to Resources as well as user Consent for a Relying Party to access User Information.
