The defining characteristic of the implicit grant is that **tokens **(ID tokens or access tokens) **are returned directly** from the /authorize endpoint instead of the /token endpoint. This is often used as part of the authorization code flow, in what is called the "hybrid flow" - retrieving the ID token on the /authorize request along with an authorization code.

A more detailed description is available on the [Microsoft identity platform and implicit grant flow](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/develop/v2-oauth2-implicit-grant-flow).
