FWIW, when I integrate APIs, I always try to ask for as little as possible. Years ago I was trying to integrate some 3rd party logins and they're all trying to give me the user's email address. I'm like I don't even need that, just give me a unique identifier I can throw in my DB. Nothing more.
Better yet, I should be able to request a list of "required" permissions and "optional" permissions. Sometimes optional stuff is handy for optional features or to prefill stuff for the user to make it easier on them but not required for the app to function.
