#### Account management {id="oauth-20-account-management"}

{{% added-in v="1.17" %}}

All account management is done via the homeserver’s web UI as all endpoints that
require User-Interactive Authentication are unsupported by this authentication
API.

This specification defines extensions to the [OAuth Authorization Server
Metadata registry](https://www.iana.org/assignments/oauth-parameters/oauth-parameters.xhtml#authorization-server-metadata)
to offer clients a way to deep-link to the account management capabilities of
the homeserver to allow the user to complete the account management operations
in a browser.

##### Account management URL discovery

The [OAuth 2.0 authorization server metadata](#server-metadata-discovery) is
extended to include the following fields:

| Field | Description |
|----------------------------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `account_management_uri` | The URL where the user is able to access the account management capabilities of the homeserver. |
| `account_management_actions_supported` | An array of actions that the account management URL supports, as defined below. |

##### Account management URL parameters

The account management URL MAY accept the following query parameters:

| Parameter | Description |
|-------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `action` | **Optional**. The action that the user wishes to take. Must match one of the actions in `account_management_actions_supported` above. |
| `device_id` | **Optional**. Identifies a particular Matrix device ID for actions that support it. |

If the `org.matrix.device_view` or `org.matrix.device_delete` actions are
advertised as supported by the server then the server SHOULD support the
`device_id` parameter.

##### Account management URL actions

The following account management actions are defined:

| Action | Description |
|----------------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `org.matrix.profile` | The user wishes to view/edit their profile (name, avatar, contact details). |
| `org.matrix.devices_list` | The user wishes to view a list of their devices. |
| `org.matrix.device_view` | The user wishes to view the details of a specific device. A `device_id` should be provided. |
| `org.matrix.device_delete` | The user wishes to delete/log out a specific device. A `device_id` should be provided. |
| `org.matrix.account_deactivate` | The user wishes to deactivate their account. |
| `org.matrix.cross_signing_reset` | The user wishes to reset their cross-signing identity. Servers SHOULD use this action in the URL of the [`m.oauth`](#oauth-authentication) UIA type. |
