OAuth support
OAuth 2.0
BookAndPay supports OAuth 2.0 support for authentication. With OAuth support, a token is provided in the HTTP request and based on the token signature and details access to users are granted.
BookAndPay support OpenID connect (OIDC). OIDC is an authentication protocol and is an extension of OAuth 2.0. See our OAuth suport in SSO
Benefits
One of big benefit of OAuth is improved security. With OAuth we are decoupling authentication from the web application itself.
- Improved security
- Decoupling authentication from web application itself
- Extending and supporting for Single Sign On for self-hosted deployments.
- You can mandate the authentication process to another third party system or your existing internal authentication/authorization servers.
