Authentication

APIs catalogues have different methods of authentication:

• Internal API Catalogues - oAuth2 Authentication
• External API Catalogues - No Authentication
• Public API Catalogue - API-Key Authentication
• Vendor Extensions - API-Key Authentication

Go to API KEY Management app and generate your own API-KEY or client id and client secret. Follow the Authentication instruction to go through the generation process.

Authentication on Staging env
