1. Setup Minecraft as OAuth Provider

Name :	Name of your application.
Application type :	Select "Web app / API" for client applications and resource/API applications that are installed on a secure server. This setting is used for OAuth confidential web clients and public user-agent-based clients. The same application can also expose both a client and resource/API.
Redirect URI :	For "Web app / API" applications, provide the base URL of your app. eg, https://<domain-name> might be the URL for a web app running on your local machine. Users would use this URL to sign in to a web client application.

• Make sure the "Grant admin consent to openid and offline_access permissions" option is enabled. When finished, click Register.
