Auto approve based on whether the user has approved the app before

[ajaybc]

I have seen the auto_approve parameter in the tutorial. But as far as I know it is retrieved from a specific field in the database.

What I want to know is whether there is any built in function to check whether the same user has approved the app with the same scope before and if not show the authorize page.

Do I have to write my own function to test that ?

You'll have to write your own method - but remember to check that if the user has approved the client before then they only approved the scopes that are requested in the current request - i.e. if the user originally approved app XYZ for scopes FOO and BAR, then if the app is now request FOO, BAR and FOOBAR the user should be asked for permission to access all the scopes again.
