Oauth 2.0 authentication in Bruno
This OAuth2 implementation is only available in the experimental build. You can download it here (opens in a new tab).
If you're using a stable version of Bruno, please refer to the legacy OAuth2 documentation.
This document describes the new OAuth2 implementation available in experimental builds of Bruno. This new approach simplifies authentication handling compared to the previous version.
Overview
Bruno supports OAuth2 authentication at both collection and request levels:
- Collection Level: Configure once and share across multiple requests
- Request Level: Configure for specific requests, overriding collection settings if needed
Features & Improvements
- Simplified Configuration: You no longer need to separately configure authorization and resource requests
- Automatic Token Management: No scripting is required to set headers for the resource URL
- Automatic Token Injection: Bruno automatically adds the token to request headers or parameters based on your configuration
- Token Data Access: Access token data using variables:
{{$oauth2.<tokenId>.access_token}}within the collection
