Answer 1

The documentation describes how you can simply provide the access_token to authenticate/create a user.

from django.contrib.auth import login

from social.apps.django_app.utils import psa

# Define an URL entry to point to this view, call it passing the
# access_token parameter like ?access_token=<token>. The URL entry must
# contain the backend, like this:
#
#   url(r'^register-by-token/(?P<backend>[^/]+)/$',
#       'register_by_access_token')

@psa('social:complete')
def register_by_access_token(request, backend):
    # This view expects an access_token GET parameter, if it's needed,
    # request.backend and request.strategy will be loaded with the current
    # backend and strategy.
    token = request.GET.get('access_token')
    user = request.backend.do_auth(request.GET.get('access_token'))
    if user:
        login(request, user)
        return 'OK'
    else:
        return 'ERROR'
