Version 1.2.0 of the OCM Protocol Specification

  • Rephrased and improved the whole protocol description text
    in order to conform to the IETF Internet Draft style.
  • Updated the API specification to OpenAPI 3.0.
  • Added a /.well-known endpoint for discovery, to replace
    the legacy /ocm-provider endpoint in a future release, and
    extended the properties and capabilities each implementation
    can expose.
  • Introduced a concept of requirements in new shares, which indicate
    that a recipient of a share MUST fulfill some capabilities in order
    to access the share.
  • Introduced several mechanisms to improve security:
    • Support for Multi-Factor Authentication.
    • Support for signing requests.
    • Support for OAuth-style exchanges, via a new /token endpoint.
    • Clarified access methods to remote shares, and deprecated
      less secure ones.
  • Extended the /notifications endpoint.
