NOTE: This authentication module is available if the Identity Management Base Module is installed.
The authorization module supports the authorization code for OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect. For more information about the authorization code flow, see, for example, the OAuth Specification or the OpenID Connect Specification.
This authentication module uses a Secure Token Service for logging in. This login procedure can be used with every Secure Token Service that can return an OAuth 2.0 token.

Remarks |
One Identity Manager determines which employee is assigned to the user account. If an employee has more than one identity, the QER | Person | MasterIdentity | UseMasterForAuthentication configuration parameter controls which employee identity is used for authentication.
A dynamic system user is determined from the employee's application roles. The user interface and the permissions are loaded through this system user. Data modifications are attributed to the current user account. To do this, the claim type whose value is used for labeling data changes must be declared. |
NOTE: If the authentication module cannot find a matching user for the claim value, it searches for the claim value in permitted system users' credentials (DialogUser.AuthentifierLogons). If an entry is found there, then that system user is logged in. To allocate the data changes, the values are used from the respective claims. If a matching user is found, the fallback cannot be used anymore.
