Confidential clients must send client credentials with requests to endpoints that require authentication. This includes token, introspection and revocation endpoints.
...
Client registration parameter "token_endpoint_auth_method" controls what authentication method client is expected to use. If registration parameter is not defined then provider automatically detects type of client credentials and one of "client_secret_basic" or "client_secret_form" is allowed.
