http-token-authentication

Scenario: Both Web application and Web API need to be authenticated and protected from the server side. Requirement: Web application is serving the contents for the browser and browser should be calling Web API directly (i.e. Browser to API). Question: Is it possible to authenticate both Web APP and the API using tokens? Any sample code or clear direction would be highly appreciated. Normally web applications are authenticated using cookies and APIs are authenticated using tokens.There are some sample projects available here but they are either browser to API (SPA token based) or Server side

I am building a token based authentication (Node.js using passport/JWT with an angular client). After the user enter his credentials he gets an access token, which he sends in every request inside the header (header: bearer TOKEN). I don't want to prompt a login request everytime his access token expires (about everyday I guess), I've heard about the Refresh Tokens . The refresh token never expires (or rarely expires) and able to renew tokens indefinitely.When the access token is about to expire, the client can send a renew request to get a new access token by sending his refresh token. I don

I'm trying to use the TokenAuthentication with one of my views. As documented in https://www.django-rest-framework.org/api-guide/authentication/ , I add the token I received from the login as an HTTP header called: 'Authorization' in the request I send. The problem is that in my unittests the authentication fails. Looking into the TokenAuthentication class I see that the header being checked is 'HTTP_AUTHORIZATION' and not 'Authorization' The view I'm using: class DeviceCreate(generics.CreateAPIView): model = Device serializer_class = DeviceSerializer authentication_classes =

Which are the steps must I follow to implement a token authentication in my web page? Any summary or links will be appreciated. I want to implement similar to Facebook or Google, first time client loggin and receive token and then use it in next actions. I read also about OAuth but I don't want to give access to my application from 3rd party. Thanks for the long response and it seems clear to me I need to read more about this. What I want is to know the "steps" to implement a basic web application that uses token authentication. That is user logging once and then can make some actions: add

I want to establish Web API Token Authentication with Angular JS as client. I am very new to this concept of Token Authentication inside Web API. I do not want to use ASP.NET Identity default tables to add or authenticate user. I have my own database and a table called "EmployeeAccess" table which contains EmployeeNumber as User Id and Password. I want to authenticate the users against the values in this table and then want to grant token so that they gets authorized for subsequent call. I have used all required OWIN and ASP.NET References to achieve the result. Here is my code of different
