Why Bosbec?
When integrating Microsoft AD, it often uses OAuth2 as the authentication method. It can present certain challenges due to its complexity and the need for proper implementation. Using the Bosbec platform, you will get rid of the difficulties associated with OAuth2, such as:
- Comprehensive authorization framework with multiple components: clients, authorization servers, resource servers, and tokens.
- Authorization Server Configuration
- Managing and securely storing tokens, including refresh tokens, can be complex, especially in distributed systems with multiple clients and servers.
Creating it in the Bosbec platform means you don´t need an intermediate solution, and changes and configurations are made directly in the workflow. Some of the advantages are:
- Easy implementation taking care of all components, i.e., clients, authorization servers, resource servers, and tokens, as well as dealing with token expiration or if their APIs go down, providing error responses, etc.
- Manage and store the token, including refreshing the token.
- Smooth customization within the template for effortless adaptation.
- Easy to debug the solution.
