Hi (as individual),
I have reviewed the Device Flow document, and I have a question about the
polling part.
The current draft is calling for the Device Client to poll the AS for a
token (steps E & F of Figure 1).
Presumably, the process started with the user pushing some button on the
Device Client to initiate the process.
One way to avoid the need for polling is for the Device Access Token
Request to be sent to the AS only after the user for example pushed that
same button again.
This would allow the user to perform steps C and D to authorize the device,
and then push the button again to get the token.
Thoughts?
Regards,
Rifaat

This is functionally equivalent to polling, as far as the spec is concerned. Instead of it being a timeout-based poll, it?s an interaction-based poll. Either way, the device makes a new HTTP request to the AS to see if the device code is good or not, and either option is possible at that point as far as the device knows? the user could go mash buttons as fast as possible without ever entering the user code.
In practice, this isn?t very likely to happen, as it requires additional steps for the user and makes for a more clunky experience. If anything, we might see it as an optimization in some environments for some clients. In any event, it?s not any different from the spec?s perspective.

You are correct that this does not change the communication model, but if
there is a large number of devices being configured at the same time, then
the polling as it is defined in the document unnecessarily overloads the AS
whether the user is doing anything or not.
In practice, this isn?t very likely to happen, as it requires additional
steps for the user and
It requires one more step (not steps), which is the user pushing the button
one more time after the user is done with authenticating and authorizing
the device; do you see any other steps needed here?
makes for a more clunky experience.
I guess this is subjective, but why do you think it is clunky?
