Authentication

Oracle Identity Governance (OIG) uses a certificate authority (CA) certificate, issued by Verisign, to enable clients to connect securely to the server.

OIG Token Service REST supports Basic Auth and JWT Token.

You access the OIG Token Service REST resources over HTTPS and must provide the following information for authentication:

• An SSL certificate authority (CA) certificate file or bundle to authenticate against the Verisign CA certificate.

For example, to authenticate using cURL:

• Set the cURL environment variable, CURL_CA_BUNDLE, to the location of your local CA certificate bundle. For information about CA certificate verification using cURL, see: http://curl.haxx.se/docs/sslcerts.html.

• Pass the user name and password for your OIG account using the -u cURL option.

The following is the syntax of the cURL command:

curl -i -X POST  -u <username>:<password> https://<subdomain>.<domain>.com:<port>/<resource-path>
