Introduce Support for OAuth2 “Authorization Code” Authentication

We have introduced support for OAuth2 “Authorization Code” grant type authentication, enhancing security for custom applications integrating with WMS. Previously, customers wanting to use Oauth, used the “Resource Owner Password Based” grant type, which required applications to handle and store WMS usernames and passwords. The new “Authorization Code” grant type can be used to redirect users to the WMS login page, eliminating the need for applications to manage WMS credentials.

This approach is particularly beneficial for interactive custom applications, though it’s not suitable for backend integrations due to its interactive nature. This enhancement provides customers with a more secure authentication option, aligning with their security preferences.
