Data Layer access with Oauth2

[E_Stapel]

Hello everyone,

is it possible to connect a 3rd-party-system to the CtrlX Data Layer via oauth2? 

The goal is to access data of the Data Layer. 

Thank you!

This is currently not possible nor planned.

OAuth2 is mentioned in swagger. This could be misleading if its not implemented:

Hello @CodeShepherd ,

which methods can be useed instead of 0Auth2?

We need access to the Data Layer from a 3rd-party-system.

Thanks in advance.

Hi @E_Stapel ,

How are you trying to access the datalayer?

For REST API, the standard is bearer token authentication. Bearer tokens are obtained by request with authorized user credentials from the Authorization and Authentication API. 

Here is an example request:

Similarly, SDK clients can access datalayer resources using authorized user credentials. See the Python datalayer client sample.

Hello @Sgilk ,
thank you for the quick answer. 
Currently is the idea to connect the 3rd-party-system via http- and REST-protocols with json-format and the authentification should run with client certificates. 
Is that possible?
