Credential-less authentication with callback for plex.tv

Hi, I am implementing plex auth in my app, however I dont want the user filling out there credentials, instead I wish to use something similar to an Oauth2 Authorization Code Grant, like PlexAmp and PlexWeb use,

I had a look at the two url’s that the two afformentioned clients use:

https://app.plex.tv/auth/#!?
clientID=xxxxxxxxx
&context%5Bdevice%5D%5Bproduct%5D=Plex%20Web
&context%5Bdevice%5D%5Bversion%5D=4.8.3&
context%5Bdevice%5D%5Bplatform%5D=Chrome&
context%5Bdevice%5D%5BplatformVersion%5D=77.0&
context%5Bdevice%5D%5Bdevice%5D=Linux&
context%5Bdevice%5D%5Bmodel%5D=hosted
&context%5Bdevice%5D%5BscreenResolution%5D=1237x1328%2C2560x1440
&context%5Bdevice%5D%5Blayout%5D=desktop
&context%5Bdevice%5D%5Bprotocol%5D=https
&forwardUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fapp.plex.tv
&code=xxxxxxxxx

https://app.plex.tv/auth#?
clientID=xxxxxxxxx
&code=xxxxxxxxx
&context%5Bdevice%5D%5Bproduct%5D=Plexamp
&context%5Bdevice%5D%5Bplatform%5D=Linux
&context%5Bdevice%5D%5BplatformVersion%5D=5.0.0-29-generic
&context%5Bdevice%5D%5Bversion%5D=1.1.0

but it appears that the clientID is something that plex creates internally, is there any way I can implement this sort of authentication for my own app?
