FanScore Authentication (External)

Overview

This document serves as a guide for integrating with FanScore authentication.

FanScore authentication is a SSO (Single Sign On) authentication system managed by InCrowd.

With a single FanScore account a Fan can access a range of products and services provided by InCrowd and their partners.

Through these APIs a Fan can register, login and manage their FanScore account.

Technical Overview

The FanScore authentication system is developed against the OAuth 2.0 specification.

Currently this guide only outlines how to implement the Resource Owner Password Credentials flow.

This service uses JWTs for access and refresh tokens. Each JWT contains some Fan details and their privileges (roles).

The JWTs are secured by a private/public key pair:

  • The private key is securely stored on InCrowd's servers and is used to generate all JWTs.
  • The public key can be shared freely and is useful for verifying that the JWT was generated by us.
