}Reauthorize an MCP client
Redoes the OAuth consent flow for an already-authorized OAuth-based MCP client, without delete-and-recreate. The flow always runs against the credentials currently stored on the client’s OAuth config.
- auth_type “oauth”: serves both a standalone admin-triggered reauth (e.g. the upstream provider revoked the credential and the client sits in needs_reauth) and the follow-up to rotating oauth_config via PUT /api/mcp/client/ (which cascades every bound token to needs_reauth).
- auth_type “per_user_oauth”: repairs the retained admin discovery credential used for periodic tool-list refresh. Only allowed while that credential actually sits in needs_reauth (409 otherwise); end-user credentials are untouched either way.
Complete the returned flow like any other admin OAuth flow: open authorize_url in a browser, poll status_url until “authorized”, then POST complete_url.

Authorizations
Management API authentication for /api/* endpoints. Use the Authorization header
with Bearer <token>, where <token> is one of:
- a Bifrost management API key,
- a dashboard session token issued by
POST /api/session/login, - base64 of
<admin-username>:<admin-password>(legacy equivalent ofBasicAuth).
Virtual keys (sk-bf-*) and the x-api-key header are not accepted on management APIs -
the sole exception is GET /api/governance/virtual-keys/quota, which is virtual-key-only.
Authentication alone is not sufficient in Bifrost Enterprise: each operation page shows a
Required Permissions table (Resource:Operation, for example Dashboard:View) above
its Authorizations section, and the caller's RBAC role or management API key scopes must
include what it lists, otherwise the request is rejected with 403 Forbidden.
A local admin — authenticated with the admin password, or any caller on a deployment with dashboard auth disabled — bypasses these checks and can call every management endpoint. See Required permissions for how permissions are derived and which endpoints are exempt.
Path Parameters
MCP client ID
Response
Reauthorization flow initiated
Response when initiating an OAuth flow
pending_oauth ID of the OAuth config created for this flow
URL to redirect the user to for authorization
When the OAuth authorization request expires
The MCP client ID that initiated this OAuth flow
Relative URL to POST once the flow is authorized (/api/mcp/client/{oauth_config_id}/complete-oauth). Note the path parameter is the oauth_config_id, not the MCP client ID.
Relative URL to poll for the flow status (/api/oauth/config/{oauth_config_id}/status). Wait for status "authorized" before calling complete_url.
Human-readable steps to complete the flow (authorize, poll, complete)
