OAuth authentication
OAuth relies on authentication scenarios called flows, which allow the resource owner (user) to share the protected content from the resource server without sharing their credentials. For that purpose, an OAuth 2.0 server issues access tokens that the client applications can use to access protected resources on behalf of the resource owner. For more information about OAuth 2.0, see oauth.net and RFC 6749.
