      Description

      Responsible: fiware@ulpgc.es
      Environment, instance and tested GEs:Fiware Lab - Global instance - Store
      // Account
      Web Browser: Mozilla Firefox, v. 33, Google Chrome, v. 38.0.2125.104
      Operating System: Windows 8
      User id: storedata.test.ulpgc@gmail.com, mxmeater@gmail.com

      Description:

      While we were creating external applications in order to upload them as
      offerings into the Store, we realized that you can register identical
      applications. That means same name, same URL, same callback URL.

      That allows you to create an application that is just a copy from an
      existing application that was created by another user and then you can
      upload your copy into the Store as if the application is really yours.

      You can even register the same application the number of times you want,
      leading on an unnecessary redundancy and maybe (depending on that number of
      times) a database space problem.

      How to replicate
      You can test this by two ways:

      Way one: Just register a new application as usual in the Account area and
      then create another one with exactly the same information. You will see the
      second application are going to be created and shown normally.

      Way two: Just clone an application created by another user. As a test, you
      can create a testing “Jurassic App” application (that we have already
      created in the StoreDataTesting account just for testing purposes) with the
      following information:

      Name: Jurassic App
      Description: An app designed for testing purposes that releases some
      raptors in your screen.
      URL: http://www.elnublo.com/sites/default/files/JurassicApp/index.html
      Callback URL: http://www.elnublo.com

      A screenshot that shows a three-times-created application is attached to
      this ticket.

        Yes, I don't see the problem there. You can create two applications with the same name, they are identified by a unique id in the database and they have different OAuth2 credentials.
