Re: Query around OAuth implicit grant

 

Hi Morten,

1. What is the timeline for the DHIS 2 upgrade to the latest OAuth 2 Spring
libraries and the implementation of OpenID Connect?

2. Is there anything in the DHIS 2 roadmap for enabling DHIS 2 to be an
Oauth2 client in order to authenticate against another Oauth2 provider?

Thanks,

Lorill
