As a PM working with APIs this is definitely something I really needed, great article, gonna share it with the non-technical team so they have an ABC they can always relate to!
Great article! Found it very informative. However, I noticed in the diagram under section 5 on securing APIs that the arrow labeled “credentials” points from the auth server to the application, and “tokens” points from the application to the auth server. Isn’t it usually the other way around—credentials sent from the application to the auth server, and tokens issued by the auth server to the application?🤔 I might be misunderstanding, but I thought I’d point it out.
Great Article!

Glad to help!
I loved how clearly everything is defined here!
Thanks for reading!
