Can Pega PRPC 7.1.5 able to connect to the REST API that uses OAuth 2.0 fot its authentication?
Hi, I am trying to connect to a REST API that uses OAuth 2.0 for its authentication.
My Pega application is in PRPC 7.1.5, I see some post that only PRPC7.2 supports OAuth. If this is true, is there any work around to implement this in PRPC 7.1.5. with the grant_type as client_cert.
Thanks

Hello,
Have you taken a look into this post: Need to implement Rest connectors in PEGA 6.3 using grant_type as "client_cert"

As per this support article, your version does not support OAuth2.0.
It supported from 7.2 onwards.
Perhaps this post can give you more insight on this query.

Hi Janardhan,
We had similar requirement to invoke internal API services that use OAuth 2.0 authentication framework. Our PRPC is 6.3 SP1. We have followed the steps below for successful service invocation.
1. Received and installed the hot fix (HFIX-9721)
2. Deploy the client certificate (.cer&.p12) in the app server.
3. Create a Keystore rule in PRPC with the p12 file configured in the app server.
4. Create an Authentication Profile rule with the authentication Scheme as Basic, shared key & shared secret
5. Create a Connect-Rest rule by configuring the Authentication Profile & Keystore configured in the prior steps along with the request header configuration.
Thanks,
