Re: [OAUTH-WG] Concerning OAuth introspection

"Action" goes against REST principle.
I do not think it is a good idea.

The only "action/operation" that I had envisioned for the introspection endpoint is introspection itself: "I have a token, what does it mean?"

The examples use HTTP Basic with client id and secret right now. Basically, the client can authenticate however it wants, including any of the methods that OAuth2 allows on the token endpoint. It could also authenticate with an access token. At least, that's the intent of the introspection draft -- if that's unclear, I'd be happy to accept suggested changes to clarify this text.
