OAuth2 integration
September 16, 2015, 05:50:23 am
Hello Everyone,
We are a Non Profit Organization considering to Implement CiviCRM for our Needs world wide the only issue we have from Architecture team is in ensuring that we can do OAuth2 Integration with our Contact Database System.

Can anyone help me understand the possibility of it or if anyone has done it successfully that give us lot of confidence.

Hi,

User authentication is usually managed by the CMS (Drupal, Wordpress, Joomla). In Drupal, for example, there is the OAuth module: https://www.drupal.org/project/oauth

Another possible alternative is the hybridauth module/library.
https://www.drupal.org/project/hybridauth
https://github.com/hybridauth/hybridauth/

hybridauth is more meant for social media authentication, but it has a ton of providers available. Sometimes it works better than specific Drupal modules.

PS: since this is a pretty clear question, not general discussion, you might have more responses asking this question on CiviCRM's Stack Exchange:

I'm not very familiar with WordPress, but it seems to have equivalent plugins, such as:
