Description

A new locale query parameter is now available for the GET https://auth.ebay.com/oauth2/authorize OAuth endpoint. This new query parameter will allow the developer/seller to localize the OAuth consent page based on the marketplace you're targeting. See the Configuring the HTTP query parameters section of the Getting user consent page for more information on this query parameter and using the GET https://auth.ebay.com/oauth2/authorize OAuth endpoint.

Research direction

Start by locating the OAuth authorization-request entry point that builds requests to GET https://auth.ebay.com/oauth2/authorize. Read the linked eBay documentation for the locale query parameter and trace how existing query parameters are handled. Done means callers can provide the marketplace locale and the generated authorization URL includes it; run the existing OAuth tests, if present.
