OAuth (Open Authorization) is the official authorization system provided by Upwork. It allows you to:

  • Log in through Upwork without sharing your username or password with third parties (like Upsky).

  • Grant limited access to your account (for example, only for messages - without payment access).

  • Revoke access at any time through your Upwork account settings.

๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ You never share your login credentials with GigRadar CRM.
You confirm access directly on Upworkโ€™s website - the same security standard used by Google, Facebook, and Instagram.
