OAuth2 is a protocol that enables us to get access to private details of user's account without getting its password.
This document is about using other OAuth authentication service providers to sign into GitLab.
If you want GitLab to be an OAuth authentication service provider to sign into other services please see the [Oauth2 provider documentation](../integration/oauth_provider.md).
Before using the OAuth2 you should create an application in user's account. Each application getting unique App ID and App Secret parameters. You should not share them.

## GitLab as OAuth2 provider
## GitLab as OAuth2 authentication service provider
This document is about using GitLab as an OAuth authentication service provider to sign into other services.
If you want to use other OAuth authentication service providers to sign into GitLab please see the [OAuth2 client documentation](../api/oauth2.md)
OAuth2 provides client applications a 'secure delegated access' to server resources on behalf of a resource owner. Or you can allow users to sign in to your application with their GitLab.com account.
In fact OAuth allows to issue access token to third-party clients by an authorization server,
with the approval of the resource owner, or end-user.
