Zaper, Oauth and .NET

Hi,

 

I’m trying to get started with integrating Zapier into our .NET MVC Web API. Unfortunately, I have a hard time getting started to implement an Oauth 2 authentication server for that purpose.

Does someone maybe know a good tutorial?

Hey @wef You may have already found this, but OAuth Lib has this guide to Creating an OAuth Provider that might be helpful. 

 

Does anyone else have any recommendations?

Is there a specific reason you need to go with an OAuth 2 authentication?

I just wanted to follow the recommendations. oAuth 2 also seems to be the best way for the end-user. What would you recommend? Having a second look, it seems like basic auth might be the easier alternative.

@wef - If either work, then either is fine.

I guess it’s a tradeoff between ease of use for you vs. the customer.
