Is there an existing issue for this?

Summary

To summarize, our application is setup to use OAuth 2.0 in Postman using the “Authorization Grant” type. Postman has been configured in Cognito and Cognito has been configured to federate into Azure AD to Authenticate the users. If the user token expires or the user is logging in for the first time, Postman displays a popup to enter their user credentials to Authenticate the user. These users are setup in Azure AD. It does not appear that Hoppscotch provides this option. It does provide an option for Oauth Client Credentials, but those are not used in this application.

I have attached a doc that includes screenshots of our Postman authentication configuration, and how we are trying to replicate it in Hoppscotch.
I believe the main question we have is: Can we configure other OAuth 2.0 flows, like the Authorization Code grant type ?

Why should this be worked on?

To be able to use Hoppscotch with apps that use an OAuth 2.0 Authorization Grant type.

Hi, Hoppscotch now supports all major OAuth 2.0 authorization grant types:

Authorization Code (with PKCE support)
Client Credentials

If you need clarification on a specific grant type or have questions about implementation, please refer to the documentation or open a new issue with specific details.
