PowerServer 2021: Integrating Third Party Authentication
summary
PowerServer exposes REST APIs using a built‑in JWT server or OAuth server, or by delegating to Amazon Cognito or Microsoft Azure AD; runtime settings require rest client and compression or OAuth2 support and enabling BeginSessionByCode so sessions start from the client. Code stores token expiry and a clock skew buffer, refreshes tokens via a timer, and writes auth values (client id/secret, pool/tenant IDs) into authentication.json. Notes: Cognito needs SSO/IAM setup; Azure AD is called directly; watch self‑signed certs, localhost/fiddler issues, and tilde characters in secrets.
