The *password* grant type is an OAuth 2.0 [protocol flow](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6749#section-4.3) for authenticating end-users at the token endpoint. It is designed for legacy applications, and it is generally recommended to use a browser-based flow instead - but in certain situation it is not feasible to change existing applications.
