Authenticated (MS Entra ) Backend api to AEMasCS

[georhe6]

Hi Community,
Our backend team  is adding authentication to the backend API,s so how should we need to handle it from AEMasCS side . The team is  using Microsoft Entra ID.

Its server-to-server communication

How should we need to handle it from AEM side

Thanks,

Hi @georhe6 ,

Service Credentials are the bonafide credentials used in any non-development scenarios - most obviously production - that facilitate an external application or system’s ability to authenticate to, and interact with, AEM as a Cloud Service over HTTP. Service Credentials themselves are not sent to AEM for authentication, instead the external application uses these to generate a JWT, which is exchanged with Adobe IMS’s APIs for an access token, which can then be used to authenticate HTTP requests to AEM as a Cloud Service.

For  more details on it you can follow below link:
