Types of authorizers
- Authorizers to OAuth 2.0 services. This part covers services requiring OAuth 2.0 (or alternatives similar in concept such as OAuth 1.0) flow to performa authorization and authentization. Examples of such services are Google Analytics, Google Ads, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok or Quickbooks.
- Authorizers to Non-OAuth 2.0 services. This covers other services not requiring OAuth 2.0 flow (or alternatives). Such services typicaly rely on some static information (e.g. Username & Password, API Key, Static token or Certificate) to perform authorization and authentization. Example of such services are Semrush, Appfigures, Mailchimp or Zendesk.
