OAuth Authentication
Configure the OAuth Authentication settings for clients that connect to services that perform authentication under OAuth 1.0a. For OAuth 2.0, authentication is configured in the REST Client's Resource and Payload tabs. Refer to OAuth Authentication for additional details. You can configure the following settings:
- Perform Authentication: Enabling this option indicates that OAuth Authentication should be performed. An Authentication field containing OAuth specific information will be added to the HTTP Header.
- Consumer Key and Secret Configuration: The Consumer Key and Consumer Secret are the credentials that the client uses to validate itself with the server. The Consumer Key is unique to each client using it. Both of these are required at all steps.
- OAuth Authentication Mode: Specifies what step of the OAuth Scenario you'd like to perform.
- Obtain Request Token: Requests the Request Token from the server using the Consumer Key and Secret.
- Scope: Restricts what information may be accessed. This information in embedded into the Consumer Key.
- Exchange Request Token for Access Token: Exchanges the Request Token plus the verification code for the Access Token.
- Request Token: Specifies Temporary Request Token credentials obtained from the server (used to exchange for the Access Token).
- Request Token Secret: Specifies Temporary Request Token credentials obtained from the server (used to exchange for the Access Token).
- Verification Code: Specifies the verification code provided by the server; this confirms that the resource owner will grant permission.
- Sign Request for OAuth Authentication: Uses the specified Access Token and Access Token Secret to give the client access to the user's private resources.
- OAuth Parameters: Allows you to specify additional parameters on the OAuth Token— for example, the timestamp and nonce.
