The release of the Curity Identity Server 5.2 included the beta version of a new hypermedia authentication API. We are very excited about this and believe it will be truly groundbreaking. It is for applications to perform user authentication, without requiring a browser or web view. It will help our organizations solve the eternal issue of security vs. customer experience.

Here are a few of the many benefits it offers:

• Easy, integrated login – users never leave your site.
• No need to change the client when authentication requirements change
• Instant requests with no full page reload

Check out the new Authentication API page to learn more.

There is also a tutorial that shows you how to run the Hypermedia Authentication API demo application and how you can easily tailor the client to your needs.
