Umbraco REST API Authentication

The Umbraco REST API Authentication and Custom REST APIs module allows you to create custom RESTful APIs. It also protects your Umbraco REST APIs from unauthorised access by using authentication methods such as Basic Authentication, OAuth 2.0 Authentication, JWT Authentication, API Key Authentication, and 3rd Party Provider Authentication. Create and manage custom Umbraco REST APIs for external applications that meet your specific needs, such as user sync and data retrieval using various conditions.

REST API Authentication Methods

Umbraco REST APIs - Umbraco REST API External API Integration

Basic Authentication

Basic Authentication allows you to authenticate the Umbraco REST API endpoint access using a basic token obtained in an encoded format using the user’s Umbraco login credentials or client credentials provided by the plugin.

OAuth 2.0 Authentication

It involves the security token generated using the most secure OAuth 2.0 Authentication protocol. The plugin both as an OAuth/Identity Provider to provide a Bearer token (access token/JWT token) on successful validation and an API Authenticator for allowing API access accordingly based on the token validation.

JWT Authentication

Umbraco JWT authentication allows you to authenticate the Umbraco REST API endpoint using a valid JWT token (JSON Web Token). The plugin provides an endpoint to generate a Bearer JWT using the valid user’s Umbraco login credentials. The generated token can be used to authenticate the Umbraco REST API endpoints.

API Key Authentication

API Key Authentication allows you to authenticate the Umbraco REST API access using an API key provided by the plugin. This method eliminates the need for using the user’s Umbraco login credentials for generating the Bearer API key (secret token).

Umbraco REST APIs - Third Party Authentication with Umbraco REST API

Third Party Provider Authentication

Third-party Authentication allows you to authenticate the Umbraco REST API endpoint using an external token provided by external providers like Firebase, Azure, Amazon Cognito, Keycloak, Google, Facebook, Okta, ADFS, Apple etc. The plugin validates these external tokens directly from its provider and allows APIs access on successful validation.

Use cases supported by our module

External APIs Integration

The Umbraco REST API plugin provides you the support for integrating external/custom APIs in Umbraco, it will provide the facility to perform fetch/update operations on the data through the external API call. You can fetch or update this external data on different Umbraco events such as user login, user registration etc.

Forms API Integration

The Umbraco REST API plugin supports interaction with the Umbraco forms or forms hosted in external client applications via its Umbraco REST API endpoints. The Umbraco REST API plugin secures the connection by authenticating form REST calls by validating against the security tokens (key).

Mobile APIs Integration

The Umbraco REST API plugin helps you with making your Umbraco site as a REST server for your mobile application. It also helps you to create user authentication APIs for your application. After login, it secures other Umbraco API calls by using the security tokens provided in earlier responses.

User sync across multiple applications

The Umbraco REST API plugin comes with the support for integrating the third party / external apis on different Umbraco events like Umbraco user login or registration. It helps you with selecting the user data to sync and sending that data over the external APIs on the above mentioned events.
