I have a requirement to implement a REST client that will access information from a web-service on behalf of members logged into a secure Umbraco page, and I will then render the returned data on the page.
The REST host requires that the request is authenticated using OAuth2, which means either having a 2nd authentication step for the member logging into Umbraco, or changing the Umbraco security provider to use OAuth2 for authentication.
I don't know much about Umbraco security at this point, whether the same provider is used for Members and Users, and if implementing OAuth2 is a realistic option.
I'm surprised that in 2018 this is not a native feature, but regardless, is there anything out there to address this and worth using ?
