Boost Mailing List

Access to the mailing list is granted to Boost users via OAuth using django-oauth-toolkit.

Setting Up Boost as an OAuth identity provider

In the admin /admin/, create a new Application under the Django OAuth Toolkit heading.

The client_id and client_secret will fill in automatically. Make sure to copy and paste them somewhere before you save.
Add the redirect_uri (this URL will be from the project that hosts the mailing list, and is not in this project. A sample URL for testing is https://www.getpostman.com/oauth2/callback.)
Whatever is in the name field will be what the user sees on the authorization screen.
Select confidential as the client type, and Authorization code as the grant type.
Save the record.
