Backend applications (Java or .Net)

Backend applications are applications that do not have a user available to authenticate.

For these applications, the recommended grant to use is the resource owner.

Because of the disparity for the location of the Infor Ming.le identities, a new set of credentials is used for the resource owner grant. Through the resource owner grant, only service accounts can be authenticated. A service account can be associated with a user by making the call to the backend application on behalf of the user. The administrator of the API Gateway creates the service account in IFS and registers your application.
