Building APIs for Developers with Identity Server 4

Explore the intricacies of building secure APIs for third-party developers using Identity Server 4 in this comprehensive 59-minute conference talk. Delve into API-first development principles and learn how to design APIs with external developers in mind. Discover the essential steps for configuring Identity Server 4 in a real-world scenario, implementing JWT and Bearer Authentication to protect your API, and establishing authentication policies to control access to specific endpoints. Gain valuable insights into API design, project architecture, structured logging, validation techniques, and the implementation of identity user classes. Examine practical aspects such as payment controllers, HTTP client factories, access tokens, signing certificates, and API naming conventions. Master the art of defining identity resources, managing client stores, and implementing API keys to create a robust and developer-friendly API ecosystem.
