General question regarding authentication and authorization for HTTP requests between front- and backend
This might be an easy question:
I tried setting up a very simple webapp with Angular 7 and Django, writing some Python methods to handle data and visualizing results in Angular frontend. As my requests failed with unauthorisized I started to read about Authentication and Authorization for HTTP requests but the more I read the more I'm drifting away from the big picture.
So my wquestions are:
- Can I enable an user to make HTTP requests to the backend without
and login? - Would it be possible to secure these requests?
- When I only allow users to to HTTP requests after any login, how do I do
the first registration? - Is the correct way: 1) user logs in 2) an
authorization token is provided 3) the token is parsed to every
request the user does after login ?
Thanks for helping me understanding the basic idea behind this!
