What APIs Support the Client Credentials Flow?

While the preceding paragraphs describe some potential use cases for this flow, these providers (Google and Amazon) have not yet implemented the Client Credentials flow in OAuth 2.0.

App Login is required for certain Facebook API calls, including the ability to get app statistics and user demographics from the App Insights service.
