Authentication Types

There are several flavors of authentication supported in this package. To specify the intended authentication pattern to use, simply instantiate the Authenticator of your choice.

Basic

This indicates Basic Auth is to be used. Users will pass in a username and password and the SDK will generate a Basic Auth header to send with requests to the service.

from ibm_cloud_sdk_core.authenticators import BasicAuthenticator

authenticator = BasicAuthenticator(<your_username>, <your_password>)

IAM

This indicates that IAM token authentication is to be used. Users can pass in a apikey and the SDK will generate a Bearer Auth header to send with requests to the service.

from ibm_cloud_sdk_core.authenticators import IAMAuthenticator

authenticator = IAMAuthenticator(<your_apikey>)

Cloud Pak for Data

This indicates that the service is an instance of CP4D, which has its own version of token authentication. Users can pass in a username, password and url, and the SDK will generate a Bearer Auth header to send with requests to the service.

from ibm_cloud_sdk_core.authenticators import CloudPakForDataAuthenticator

authenticator = CloudPakForDataAuthenticator(<your_username>, <your_password>, <your_url>)

Bearer Token

This indicates bearer token authentication is to be used. The system would prepend the bearer name to your token and add it to the authorization header.

from ibm_cloud_sdk_core.authenticators import BearerTokenAuthenticator

authenticator = BearerTokenAuthenticator(<your_bearer_token>)

No Authentication

This indicates that no authentication is needed when sending requests to the service

from ibm_cloud_sdk_core.authenticators import NoAuthAuthenticator

authenticator = NoAuthAuthenticator()
