We went through a few months of research on how we should approach authentication for our API(http://developer.fellowshipone.com) and all paths pointed to OAuth.<br /><br />By far, the community and the authors of the protocol have been more than supportive and we have found that it even supports multi-tenant, multi-user with multi-persona user models (with some extension)<br /><br />So far all of our consumers have had very little difficulty with consumption, and they are using several different platforms (iPhone, PHP, Rails, .NET, etc...)<br /><br />Great choice!Nickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14465282349677297562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5819898692345221601.post-46211234161543072652009-08-19T15:39:53.167+01:002009-08-19T15:39:53.167+01:00Hey Nick - did you guys look into OpenID as well a...Hey Nick - did you guys look into OpenID as well as OAuth?

I feel safer as a developer and a shopper.<br /><br />Some people consider mobile apps to be intrinsically trusted, not needing OAuth - what are your thoughts on this?Kenneth Kuflukhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04342391487570188877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5819898692345221601.post-70053887397142104042009-08-17T23:53:27.434+01:002009-08-17T23:53:27.434+01:00Thats great stuff Nick thanks for listening to all...Thats great stuff Nick thanks for listening to all the feedback, it will make our life much easier using this than having to try and convince our users why they should give us their tesco.com password.<br /><br />BTW as far as I'm concerned I don't mind if you do break the API interface during the beta stages if it leads to a better API.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5819898692345221601.post-43767190388581082482009-08-17T22:47:59.084+01:002009-08-17T22:47:59.084+01:00great news!great news!Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16592137382475556440noreply@blogger.com
