👉 The authorization fluid, often referred to as OpenID Connect (OIDC) or ID Token in the context of OAuth 2.0, is a standardized method for securely granting access to user data across different applications and services without requiring users to share their credentials repeatedly. It operates by issuing an ID token, a JSON Web Token (JWT), which contains user identity information and is signed to ensure its integrity and authenticity. This token can be validated by the requesting service, allowing it to authenticate the user without needing to know their password. The fluidity of this system lies in its ability to enable seamless, secure interactions between disparate systems while maintaining user privacy and control over their data.
