Overview

Sensaru Cloud supports the following authentication methods:

1. OAuth
2. Client certificate
3. API key

OAuth is used by user interfaces. Client certificates are used to connect backend modules. API keys are used to access the REST or RPC API from external services.

Authentication is and must always be done by C1 Core. Modules can always assume that an incoming request is authenticated.

Warning

Do not implement authentication within modules as it is already checked in C1 Core.
