Using passwordless in microservices #115

Open helloravi opened 6 years ago

helloravi commented 6 years ago

Can passwordless be used in microservices? Some sort of OPENID or similar model would be useful. What would need to be changed for setting it up?

You can create a microservice for authentication (using passwordless) which returns a JTW-token. Use the token among your other services.
