Configuring End-User Authentication

In the ActivID Appliance OpenID Connect API, there are two methods to authenticate an end user:

  • Via a token request to the token endpoint with the Resource Owner password grant.

  • Via the Authorization Code Flow with an authentication request to the authentication endpoint to get an authorization code, then a token request to the token endpoint with a code grant.

For further information about the grant flows, see Exchanging Grants for Tokens.
