So, my boyfriend and I are making this Android app. My first post for more info. I was wondering if mastodon has an OAuth feature where I could use to sign in with it via my Android app.

I’m also wondering in that in terms of API, do most programmers mean the key (API Key) or a way for a program to integrate anonymously with a platform.

Likewise, I’ve always been confused when it came to API access. Looking for clarification.

I think you mean "OAUTH" not "OATH". That might make your search for information easier.

Sorry, I don't know much about OAUTH and even less about Mastodon.
