Is it mandatory to switch to OAuth authentication for OIC Gen3 - Fusion Connections?

in ERP Integrations 1 comment

Summary:

We are looking into switching to OAuth-based authentication for our REST connections. We noticed that Basic Authentication is not supported for Factory REST APIs or REST Endpoints, which require OAuth. We plan to move forward with OAuth as it is more secure and the documentation confirms that Basic Authentication is not supported for Factory APIs.

Currently, we use Basic Authentication for Fusion SaaS but plan to switch to Single Sign-On (SSO) in the future. We are wondering if we also need to switch to OAuth-based authentication for Fusion SaaS.

Additionally, we understand that OAuth requires setting up a Confidential App in the OCI layer. We plan to create multiple confidential apps within OCI for our Boundary Systems interactions. However, what should we do if one of the Boundary Systems cannot use OAuth and only supports Basic Authentication?
