When I create a new client using the `/oauth2/default/registration` API and include all scopes, I know that specifying only the **patient** scope enables the client by default. However, I don’t want to limit the client to just the **patient** scope—I want to include **all scopes**.

How can I programmatically enable the client with all scopes without relying on the OpenEMR UI?

Hi, have you figured this one out? I am facing the same issue. I want to run OpenEMR in docker container and provide seamless integration with my other services without the need to enter the OpenEMR UI. But as far as I know, the client enablement is not supported by API.
