Salesforce Certified Identity and Access Management Practice

The chatter_api scope parameter allows access to Chatter REST API resources only. This scope is specifically designed to enable applications to use the Chatter REST API, which facilitates interaction with Chatter features in Salesforce. Through this scope, developers can access Chatter-specific functionalities such as posting, commenting, and retrieving feed data, allowing for better integration and interaction with the Chatter social collaboration platform within Salesforce. The focus of the chatter_api scope is solely on Chatter functionalities, making it distinct from other potential scopes that might grant broader access or different functionalities unrelated to Chatter. This focused access ensures that applications that require interaction with Chatter can do so securely without unnecessary permissions extending beyond what is needed for Chatter-related tasks.
