OAuth2
An open standard authorization protocol that allows third-party applications to access protected resources on a resource server on behalf of a user without obtaining the user's password. It is widely used in authentication and authorization scenarios for web and mobile applications.

Governance requirements for integrating cloud-native AI pipelines with legacy systems include: strict authentication with OAuth2 and OIDC between microservices and the API gateway, together with fine-grained RBAC.
Drupal's Consumer is a client entity in the OAuth2 authorization system, authenticated via client_id and client_secret; the client credentials grant type is suited to server-to-server scenarios and requires no user involvement.
Scope defines the range of resources and operations a consumer can access; even if the client_secret leaks, an attacker can only operate within the permissions limited by the scope.
OAuth2's machine-to-machine (M2M) flow (the client credentials mode) is an authorization method designed specifically for service-to-service communication without user interaction, and AI agents can exchange a client ID and secret for a JWT access token.
n8n provides a built-in authorization flow and automatic token renewal for OAuth2, so nodes such as Google Drive and Slack do not need to manually manage expiration times.
n8n's Google Sheets node creates credentials by clicking "Sign In with Google" and approving access permissions; once saved, the credentials can be reused by subsequent workflows.
