Authenticate

The Oracle Communications Billing Care REST API uses OAuth 2.0 access tokens to authenticate requests from clients.

Before you can send requests, you must acquire a valid OAuth access token. Then, your clients must pass the token in the header of every request sent to a Billing Care REST API endpoint.

Note:

Authentication and OAuth 2.0 access tokens are required for production systems only. In a test system, you can send requests to the Billing Care REST API without a token in the header.

You can use either Oracle Identity Cloud Service or Oracle Access Management to set up authentication for your client requests. For more information, see "Billing Care REST API Security" in BRM Security Guide.
