Release r202511
What's New
This release introduces the following enhancement:
OAuth 2.0 Authentication for Services
Previously, service endpoints could be either
- public, or
- protected by Basic Authentication.
With this release, service endpoints can now also be secured using OAuth 2.0, specifically the Client Credentials Grant flow as defined in RFC 6749, Section 4.4.
When a service is protected with OAuth 2.0, external applications must:
- Obtain an access token using valid OAuth credentials
- Include the token in the Authorization header when calling the service
- Refresh the token before it expires (tokens are valid for 1 hour)
For detailed setup instructions, see the automator Help documentation.
