# Scopes and Permissions

Scopes define what data is included in the [ID Token](/docs/sign-in-with-vercel/tokens#id-token) and whether to issue a [Refresh Token](/docs/sign-in-with-vercel/tokens#refresh-token). Permissions control what APIs and team resource an [Access Token](/docs/sign-in-with-vercel/tokens#access-token) can interact with.

## Scopes

The following scopes are available:

| Scope            | Description                                                                                                                                                                             |
| ---------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `openid`         | Required permission, needed to issue an [ID Token](/docs/sign-in-with-vercel/tokens#id-token) for user identification.                                                                  |
| `email`          | Enabling this scope grants access to the user's email address in the [ID Token](/docs/sign-in-with-vercel/tokens#id-token).                                                             |
| `profile`        | Enabling this scope grants access to the user's basic profile information, including name, username, and profile picture, in the [ID Token](/docs/sign-in-with-vercel/tokens#id-token). |
| `offline_access` | Enabling this scope issues a [Refresh Token](/docs/sign-in-with-vercel/tokens#refresh-token).                                                                                           |
