REST & JSON API Authentication for Drupal
This module secures your Drupal site's API endpoints by supporting various authentication methods like Basic, API Key, OAuth 2.0, and JWT. It allows for granular control over API access, including IP address and role-based restrictions.
The Drupal API Authentication module prevents unauthorized access to your Drupal site. This helps to secure API endpoints from unauthorized access.
Our module supports key API authentication methods such as Basic Authentication, API Key Authentication, JWT Authentication, and more. Additionally, a REST API defines a set of functions in which developers can perform requests such as GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE, and receive responses via the HTTP protocol.

Drupal API Authentication Methods:
Drupal REST & API Authentication module supports the following authentication methods:
1) Basic Authentication: Users can effortlessly authenticate themselves using their username and password using the basic authentication technique.
2) API Key Authentication: This is a method where the users are authenticated using a unique API key on every API request.
3) OAuth 2.0 Authentication: One of the secured authentication methods, where the OAuth 2.0 protocol is used to generate an access token. This token authenticates access to your Drupal site API.
4) JWT Authentication: This method authenticates users with an existing external JSON Web Token (JWT) from a provider, or with one obtained through our module. Just add the token in the API request header to authenticate the users
5) Third-Party Provider Authentication: Restrict access to your Drupal REST API using third-party identity providers such as Okta, Google, or Microsoft Entra ID etc. This technique allows you to configure the Drupal API authentication module with the identity provider and authenticate all the API requests using the access token from the identity provider.
