If the automatic delivery method for API keys is used, the grant type `urn:ietf:params:oauth:grant-type:api-key` needs to be used to request an API key. This grant type requires `grant_type=urn:ietf:params:oauth:grant-type:api-key`, `client_id`, `client_secret`, `redirect_uri` and `code`.
For OAuth 2.0., two different grant types (`authorization_code`, `refresh_token`) are supported. Authorization code grant type requires `grant_type=authorization_code`, `client_id`, `client_secret`, `redirect_uri`, `code`. Refresh token grant type requires `grant_type=refresh_token`, `client_id`, `client_secret`, `refresh_token`.
