Abstract
Methods and systems use a central validation module of a microservice-based system to interface an external identity provider (IDP) among a plurality of external IDPs to receive authentication and/or authorization information for an external request from a client. After the authentication and/or authorization information has been received for the external request, an internal request containing the authentication and/or authorization information is generated by the central validation module, which is transmitted to at least one microservice of the microservice-based system to provide services in response to the external request. The internal request is validated with the central validation module by each of the at least one microservice, which executes at least one operation to provide the services. A response that is based at least partly on results of the services provided by the at least one microservice is returned for the external request to the client.
