Dynamics 365 Authentication

Question

Microsoft Dynamics 365 supports three security models for authentication: Claims-based authentication, Active Directory authentication, and OAuth 2.0.

I've managed to implement the Active Directory authentication which is based on Oath2.0. What might be the difference between Active Directory authentication and Oath 2.0 and How can I configure OAuth 2.0 security for Dynamics 365. I don't have so much knowledge about Oath or Active Directory.

Answer 1

Based on my understanding, one benefit of using OAuth is that your application can support multi-factor authentication.

You can refer the links below about the detail between OAuth and Active Directory and claims-based authentication:

What did you mean OAuth 2.0 security for Dynamics 365?
