[OSM-dev] Use of OSM API for non-editing third party applications

[Jóhannes Birgir Jensson]

Hello Martin.

I'm afraid you are confusing two different things.

The relevant page for authentication is this one https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OAuth (https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OAuth)

This is a totally different thing from the editing API.

Cheers,
Jói

  I never read anything where it said that OSM-auth was only for editing. So I have worked on the assumption that the answer would be yes, you can piggyback. 
it’s written here:
