# Authorization Code Flow with PAR and JAR

Use Push Authorization Requests (PAR) and <Tooltip tip="JSON Web Token (JWT): Standard ID Token format (and often Access Token format) used to represent claims securely between two parties." cta="View Glossary" href="/docs/glossary?term=JWT">JWT</Tooltip>-Secured Authorization Requests (JAR) together to provide a higher security level in the <Tooltip tip="JSON Web Token (JWT): Standard ID Token format (and often Access Token format) used to represent claims securely between two parties." cta="View Glossary" href="/docs/glossary?term=authorization+flow">authorization flow</Tooltip>. Whereas PAR provides clients with confidentiality and integrity protection for authorization requests, JAR provides non-repudiation protection.

### How to use PAR and JAR together

To use PAR and JAR together, [generate the JAR request](/docs/get-started/authentication-and-authorization-flow/authorization-code-flow/authorization-code-flow-with-jar) and, instead of calling the `/authorize` endpoint, post the request to the PAR endpoint. Then, the PAR endpoint returns a `request_uri` that you can use to call the `/authorize` endpoint as in a [regular PAR flow](/docs/get-started/authentication-and-authorization-flow/authorization-code-flow/authorization-code-flow-with-par).

The following cURL request uses PAR and JAR together:

```bash lines
curl --location 'https://your_tenant.auth0.com/oauth/par' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded' \
--data-urlencode 'client_id=[YOUR CLIENT ID]' \
--data-urlencode 'client_secret=[YOUR CLIENT SECRET]' \
--data-urlencode 'request=[JWT]'
```
