I like this! I’m currently working on a Django project and was wondering whether oauth2 capture could be used for it.

I’ll need user A (freelancer) to get access to certain providers accounts (eg Google) of user B (client), and user B to grant user A privileges to user B‘s provider account.

So, for example, freelancer asks client to get admin access to their Google analytics account and my app is the intermediary letting this transaction happen. Would this be possible with oauth2_capture?

Hmmm...if I understand it this is possible. The freelancer's client would need to oauth authenticate and approve the right permissions/scopes through.

Then those tokens would be saved in the database for your freelancer to use on their customer's behalf.
