To protect your data and users, Walley uses Microsoft Azure AD B2C as an authentication service provider. 
To gain access to the API you must identify your application against this service to obtain a token that you use to identify your application against our APIs.
</Ingress>

> Microsoft Azure AD B2C follows the OAuth2 standard. To integrate with the Walley API, you use the **Client Credentials** flow.
