Authentication

forge provides authentication through the Identity System and pluggable authentication backends. Use these building blocks to protect admin routes and API endpoints.

Core building blocks​

  • Identity System - User models, sessions, permissions, and auth services. See the Identity System feature.
  • REST API authentication - Apply authentication to API viewsets. See the REST API guide.
  • Security defaults - CSRF and related protections. See the Security guide.

Next steps​

  1. Review the Identity System feature to understand available backends and services.
  2. Follow the REST API guide to wire authentication into API routes.
