All Known Implementing Classes:

Functional Interface:

This is a functional interface and can therefore be used as the assignment target for a lambda expression or method reference.
```
@FunctionalInterface
public interface OAuth2AuthorizedClientManager
```
Implementations of this interface are responsible for the overall management of Authorized Client(s).
The primary responsibilities include:
1. Authorizing (or re-authorizing) an OAuth 2.0 Client by leveraging an OAuth2AuthorizedClientProvider(s).
2. Delegating the persistence of an OAuth2AuthorizedClient, typically using an OAuth2AuthorizedClientService OR OAuth2AuthorizedClientRepository.

  - authorize
```
@Nullable
OAuth2AuthorizedClient authorize(OAuth2AuthorizeRequest authorizeRequest)
```
    Attempt to authorize or re-authorize (if required) the client identified by the provided clientRegistrationId. Implementations must return null if authorization is not supported for the specified client, e.g. the associated OAuth2AuthorizedClientProvider(s) does not support the authorization grant type configured for the client.
    In the case of re-authorization, implementations must return the provided authorized client if re-authorization is not supported for the client OR is not required, e.g. a refresh token is not available OR the access token is not expired.
    
    Parameters:
    
    authorizeRequest - the authorize request
    
    Returns:
    
    the OAuth2AuthorizedClient or null if authorization is not supported for the specified client
