Authentication

In this section, you will find the full technical specifications for the authentication method required to use the IDCloud platform’s REST APIs

PreviousQuickstartNextCreating a Service Account

Last updated 2 months ago

To use the IDCloud platform, it is necessary to authenticate via an access token, using the authentication system known as OAuth2.

The OAuth2 authentication system from Unico supports server-to-server interaction between a web application and Unico's services.

For this scenario, you will need a service account, which is an impersonal account belonging to your application and not to an individual user. Your application calls Unico’s APIs on behalf of the service account, so users are not directly involved. This scenario is called “two-legged OAuth,” or “2LO.” Typically, an application uses a service account when the application calls Unico’s APIs to work with its own data rather than user data.

This is step zero to begin your implementation; therefore, do not skip this step.
