Spring Boot Social / connect / twitter vs / signin / twitter

In my application I am using Spring Boot Social and have two types of urls, for example

/connect/twitter

      

and

/signin/twitter

      

They both work very similarly. What are the differences between these urls and which one should I use to authenticate \ authorize a user through social media?

The link /signin/twitter

must be used if you want the user to connect to your app with their Twitter credentials.

The link /connect/twitter

should be used if you have user authentication in the app and you just want users to connect their accounts (for example, a registered user wants to connect their Twitter account so they can see their followers, etc.).

For reference, see the following documents:
