Covers when dynamic scopes are useful (e.g., single-operation tokens for transfers or sensitive updates), and walks through the required customizations: scope validation logic via a custom AuthenticationValidator, consent validation using a Predicate, a custom consent page with Thymeleaf, and end-to-end integration testing with WebEnvironment.RANDOM_PORT and RestTestClient. Code separates Spring-specific adapter code from business logic via a DynamicScopeService. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
