Salesforce Architecture Tutorial - How to Choose the right Auth Flow for your Integrations
In this episode we go over how to choose the right auth flow for your integrations to make sure your integrations are as safe and secure as they can be. We got over the difference between authentication and authorization, the difference between the three major protocols (SAML, OpenId Connect and OAuth) and the eight most commonly used auth flows and when to use one over the other.
