Authentication

Each HTTP request against the OpenStack Compute system requires the inclusion of specific authentication credentials. A single deployment may support multiple authentication schemes (OAuth, Basic Auth, Token). The authentication scheme is provided by the OpenStack Identity service. You can contact your provider to determine the best way to authenticate against the Compute API.

Note

Some authentication schemes may require that the API operate using SSL over HTTP (HTTPS).
