Introduction

Strengthen the security of your Odoo API with the User-Based Authentication module. This essential tool provides a straightforward and secure method for authenticating API requests using user credentials. By requiring a username and password to be sent in the HTTP request header, this module ensures that only legitimate and authorized users can access your Odoo data through the API. It is a fundamental component for any business looking to build secure, reliable, and scalable integrations with third-party applications.

Key Features

  • User Credential Authentication: Authenticates API requests using the client's username and password.

  • Secure Access Control: Grants access to API resources only after successful verification of user credentials.

  • HTTP Header-Based: Works by sending the username and password directly in the HTTP request headers for a standardized approach.

  • Unauthorized Access Prevention: Protects your Odoo instance from unauthorized access by rejecting requests without valid credentials.

  • Easy Integration: Simple to implement and use with any third-party application or service that needs to connect to your Odoo API.

  • Core API Framework Component: Serves as a foundational element for building a secure and robust API framework.

Benefits

  • Enhanced Security: Protect your valuable business data with a proven and secure authentication method.

  • Controlled Access: Ensure that only authorized users and systems can interact with your Odoo API.

  • Simplified Integration: A straightforward authentication process makes it easier for developers to build secure integrations.

  • Improved Compliance: Meet security and compliance requirements by implementing a robust user authentication system.

  • Reliable and Scalable: A reliable and scalable solution for managing API access as your business and integration needs grow.
