Secure Your APIs with OAuth - Developer Workshop Part III

In our third and final session, you’ll learn how to use OAuth 2.0 to secure access to your APIs. The OAuth framework and its extensions provide a lot of different knobs and dials to make it work exactly as you’d like.

We’ll look at how to use JWT access tokens, as well as the tradeoffs that come with them. We’ll look at how to design scopes that allow granular access to various parts of your backend services. We’ll also look at how to design a microservices architecture protected by OAuth access tokens at a gateway.
