Authentication

Besides the original Apache APISIX authentication plugins, API7 Cloud also provides another authentication plugin, which integrates five auth methods and provides a well-designed UI form.

You can visit the following docs to learn how to use each auth method in this plugin.

• Basic Auth
• Key Auth
• HMAC Auth
• JWT Auth
• OpenID Connect Auth

tip

Note that you can simultaneously use this authentication plugin with the original Apache APISIX authentication plugins. In such a case, your API requests must pass all verifications of these plugins, or the gateway will reject them.
