Configure Authentication for Kafka in Confluent Platform Using Confluent for Kubernetes

This document presents the supported authentication concepts and describes how to configure authentication for Kafka using Confluent for Kubernetes (CFK). Kafka is configured without authentication by default.

For more details on security concepts in Confluent Platform, see Security in Confluent Platform.

For a comprehensive tutorial scenario for configuring authentication, see Deploy Secure Confluent Platform.

Configure authentication to access Kafka

This section describes the following methods for the server and client-side Kafka authentication:

SASL/PLAIN authentication

SASL/PLAIN is a simple username/password mechanism that is typically used with TLS network encryption to implement secure authentication.

The username is used as the authenticated principal, which can then be used in authorization.

Server-side SASL/PLAIN authentication for Kafka

Configure the server-side SASL/PLAIN authentication for Kafka.

You can use the JAAS and JAAS pass-through mechanisms to set up SASL/PLAIN credentials.

Create server-side SASL/PLAIN credentials using JAAS config

When you use jaasConfig to provide required credentials for Kafka, CFK automates configuration. For example, when you add, remove, or update users, CFK automatically updates the JAAS config. This is the recommended way to configure SASL/PLAIN for Kafka.

The expected key for jaasConfig is plain-users.json.

  1. Create a .json file and add the expected value, in the following format:

    {
"username1": "password1",
"username2": "password2",
...
"usernameN": "passwordN"
}

  2. Create a Kubernetes secret using the expected key (plain-users.json) and the value file you created in the previous step.

    The following example command creates a Kubernetes secret, using the ./creds-kafka-sasl-users.json file that contains the credentials:

    kubectl create secret generic credential \
  --from-file=plain-users.json=./creds-kafka-sasl-users.json \
  --namespace confluent
Create server-side SASL/PLAIN credentials using JAAS config pass-through

If you have customizations, such as using a custom login handler, you can bypass the CFK automation and provide the configuration directly using jaasConfigPassThrough.

The expected key for jaasConfigPassThrough is plain-jaas.conf.

The expected value for the key (the data in the file) is your JAAS config text. See this Confluent Platform doc for understanding JAAS configs.

  1. Create a .conf file and add the expected value, in the following format.

    sasl.jaas.config=org.apache.kafka.common.security.plain.PlainLoginModule required \
  username="<admin username>" \
  password="<admin user password>" \
  user_admin="<admin user password>" \
  user_<additional user1>="<additional user1 password>" \
  ...
  user_<additional userN>=”<additional userN password>”;

    The following example uses the standard login module and specifies two additional users, user1 and user2.

    sasl.jaas.config=org.apache.kafka.common.security.plain.PlainLoginModule required \
  username="admin" \
  password="admin-secret" \
  user_admin="admin-secret" \
  user_user1="user1-secret" \
  user_user2=”user2-secret”;

  2. You can use a Kubernetes secret or a directory path in the container to store the credentials.

    • Create a Kubernetes secret using the expected key (plain-jaas.conf) and the value file you created in the previous step.

      The following example command creates a Kubernetes secret, using the ./creds-kafka-sasl-users.conf file that contains the credentials:

      kubectl create secret generic credential \
  --from-file=plain-jaas.conf=./creds-kafka-sasl-users.conf \
  --namespace confluent

    • Use a directory path in the container to provide the required credentials.

      If jaasConfigPassThrough.directoryPathInContainer is configured as /vaults/secrets in the Kafka CR, the expected file, plain-jaas.conf, must exist in the directory path.

      See Provide secrets for Confluent Platform component CR for providing the credential and required annotations when using Vault.

      See CFK GitHub examples for more information on using the directoryPathInContainer property with Vault.

Configure Kafka for SASL/PLAIN authentication

In the Kafka custom resource (CR), configure the Kafka listener to use SASL/PLAIN as the authentication mechanism:

kind: Kafka
spec:
  listeners:
    external:
      authentication:
        type: plain                 --- [1]
        jaasConfig:                 --- [2]
          secretRef:                --- [3]
        jaasConfigPassThrough:      --- [4]
          secretRef:                --- [5]
          directoryPathInContainer: --- [6]

  • [1] Required. Set to plain.

  • [2] When you use jaasConfig, you provide the user names and passwords, and CFK automates configuration. For example, when you add, remove, or update users, CFK automatically updates the JAAS config. This is the recommended way to configure SASL/PLAIN for Kafka.

  • One of [3], [5], or [6] is required. Only specify one.

  • [3] Provide the name of the Kubernetes secret that you created in the previous section.

  • [4] If you have customizations, such as using a custom login handler, you can bypass the CFK automation and provide the configuration directly using jaasConfigPassThrough.

  • [5] Provide a Kubernetes secret that you created in the previous section with the expected key and the value.

  • [6] Provide the directory path in the container that you set up for the credentials in the previous section.

    See CFK GitHub examples for more information on using the directoryPathInContainer property with Vault.

Client-side SASL/PLAIN authentication for Kafka

Configure the client-side SASL/PLAIN authentication for other Confluent components to authenticate to Kafka.

You can use the JAAS and JAAS pass-through mechanisms to set up SASL/PLAIN credentials.

Create client-side SASL/PLAIN credentials using JAAS config

When you use jaasConfig, you provide the user names and passwords, and CFK automates configuration. For example, when you add, remove, or update users, CFK automatically updates JAAS config.

The expected client-side key for jaasConfig is plain.txt.

  1. Create a .txt file and add the expected value, in the following format:

    username=<username>
password=<password>

    You specify the name of this value file in the next step when you create a secret.

  2. Create a Kubernetes secret using the expected key (plain.txt) and the value file you created in the previous step.

    The following example command creates a Kubernetes secret, using the ./creds-kafka-sasl-users.txt file that contains the credentials:

    kubectl create secret generic credential \
  --from-file=plain.txt=./creds-kafka-sasl-users.txt \
  --namespace confluent

    If the user name or password changes in the future, you need to update the credentials in the value file (e.g. ./creds-kafka-sasl-users.txt file), update the secret for the plain.txt key, and manually restart the Confluent Platform components that depends on the plain.txt key. For details, see Update client-side SASL/PLAIN users using JAAS config.

Create client-side SASL/PLAIN credentials using JAAS config pass-through

If you have customizations, such as using a custom login handler, you can bypass the CFK automation and provide the configuration directly using jaasConfigPassThrough.

The expected client-side key for jaasConfigPassThrough is plain-jaas.conf.

  1. Create a .conf file and add the expected value, in the following format.

    For example:

    sasl.jaas.config=org.apache.kafka.common.security.plain.PlainLoginModule required \
  username="kafka" \
  password="kafka-secret";

    You specify the name of this value file in the next step when you create a secret.

  2. You can use a Kubernetes secret or a directory path in the container to store the credentials.

    • Create a Kubernetes secret using the expected key (plain-jaas.conf) and the value file you created in the previous step.

      The following example command creates a Kubernetes secret, using the ./creds-kafka-sasl-users.conf file that contains the credentials:

      kubectl create secret generic credential \
  --from-file=plain-jaas.conf=./creds-kafka-sasl-users.conf \
  --namespace confluent

    • Use a directory path in the container to provide the required credentials.

      If jaasConfigPassThrough.directoryPathInContainer is configured as /vaults/secrets in the component CR, the expected file, plain-jaas.conf, must exist in that directory path.

      See Provide secrets for Confluent Platform component CR for providing the credential and required annotations when using Vault.

Configure Confluent components for SASL/PLAIN authentication to Kafka

For each of the Confluent components that communicates with Kafka, configure SALS/PLAIN authentication in the component CR as below:

kind: <Confluent component>
spec:
  dependencies:
    kafka:
      authentication:
        type: plain                 --- [1]
        jaasConfig:                 --- [2]
          secretRef:                --- [3]
        jaasConfigPassThrough:      --- [4]
          secretRef:                --- [5]
          directoryPathInContainer: --- [6]
  • [1] Required. Set to plain.
  • [2] When you use jaasConfig, you provide the user names and passwords, and CFK automates configuration. For example, when you add, remove, or update users, CFK automatically updates JAAS config.
  • [3], [5] or [6] is required. Specify only one.
  • [3] Provide a Kubernetes secret you created in the previous section for this Confluent component to authenticate to Kafka.
  • [4] An alternate way to configure JAAS is to use jaasConfigPassThrough. If you have customizations, such as using custom login handlers, you can bypass the CFK automation and provide the configuration directly.
  • [5] Provide a Kubernetes secret that you created in the previous section.
  • [6] Provide the directory path in the container that you set up in the previous section.

SASL/PLAIN with LDAP authentication

SASL/PLAIN with LDAP callback handler is a variation of SASL/PLAIN. When you use SASL/PLAIN with LDAP for authentication, the username principals and passwords are retrieved from an LDAP server.

Server-side SASL/PLAIN with LDAP for Kafka

You must set up an LDAP server, for example, Active Directory (AD), before configuring and starting up a Kafka cluster with the SASL/PLAIN with LDAP authentication. For more information, see Configuring Kafka Client Authentication with LDAP.

You can use the JAAS and JAAS pass-through mechanisms to set up the credentials.

To implement both a SASL/PLAIN listener and a SASL/PLAIN with LDAP listener in your Kafka cluster, the SASL/PLAIN listener must be configured with authentication.jaasConfigPassThrough. Configuring authentication.jaasConfig for the SASL/PLAIN will cause the clients connection to the SASL/PLAIN with the LDAP listener to fail with a java.io.EOFException.

Note

The files that you use to create authentication secrets must use the Linux style line ending that only uses line feed (\n). The Windows style line ending that uses carriage return and line feed (\r\n) does not work in Kubernetes secret files.

Create server-side SASL/PLAIN LDAP credentials using JAAS config

The expected server-side key for jaasConfig is plain-interbroker.txt.

  1. Create a .txt file and add the expected value, in the following format. You specify the name of this value file in the next step when you create a secret.

    username=<user>
password=<password>

    The username and password must belong to a user that exists in LDAP. This is the user that each Kafka broker authenticates when the cluster starts.

  2. Create a Kubernetes Secret with the user name and password for inter-broker authentication.

    The following example command creates a Kubernetes secret, using the ./creds-kafka-ldap-users.txt file that contains the credentials:

    kubectl create secret generic credential \
  --from-file=plain-interbroker.txt=./creds-kafka-ldap-users.txt \
  --namespace confluent
Create server-side SASL/PLAIN LDAP credentials using JAAS config pass-through

The expected server-side key for jaasConfigPassThrough is plain-jaas.conf.

  1. Create a .conf file and add the expected value. For example:

    sasl.jaas.config=org.apache.kafka.common.security.plain.PlainLoginModule required \
   username="kafka" \
   password="kafka-secret";

    You specify the name of this value file in the next step when you create a secret.

  2. You can use a Kubernetes secret or a directory path in the container to store the credentials.

    • Create a Kubernetes secret using the expected key (plain-jaas.conf) and the value file you created in the previous step.

      The following example command creates a Kubernetes secret, using the ./creds-kafka-sasl-users.conf file that contains the credentials:

      kubectl create secret generic credential \
  --from-file=plain-jaas.conf=./creds-kafka-sasl-users.conf \
  --namespace confluent

    • Use a directory path in the container to provide the required credentials.

      If jaasConfigPassThrough.directoryPathInContainer is configured as /vaults/secrets in the Kafka CR, the expected file, plain-jaas.conf, must exist in the directory path.

      See Provide secrets for Confluent Platform component CR for providing the credential and required annotations when using Vault.

Configure Kafka for server-side SASL/PLAIN with LDAP authentication

  1. Configure the listeners in the Kafka custom resource (CR):

    kind: Kafka
spec:
  listeners:
    internal:
      authentication:
        type: ldap                 --- [1]
        jaasConfig:                --- [2]
          secretRef:               --- [3]
        jaasConfigPassThrough:     --- [4]
          secretRef:               --- [5]
          directoryPathInContainer:--- [6]
    external:
      authentication:
        type: ldap                 --- [7]
    custom:
      authentication:
        type: ldap                 --- [8]
    • [1] Required for the SASL/PLAIN with LDAP authentication for the internal Kafka listeners.
    • [2] When you use jaasConfig to pass credentials, you provide the user name and password, and CFK automates configuration. When you add, remove, or update the user, CFK automatically updates the JAAS configuration. This is the recommended way to configure SASL/PLAIN LDAP for Kafka.
    • [3] Provide the name of the Kubernetes secret that you created in the previous section for inter-broker authentication.
    • [4] An alternate way to configure JAAS is to use jaasConfigPassThrough. If you have customizations, such as using a custom login handler, you can bypass the CFK automation and provide the configuration directly.
    • [5] Provide the name of the Kubernetes secret that you created in the previous section for inter-broker authentication.
    • [6] Provide the directory path in the container that you set up in the previous section.
    • [7] Required for the SASL/PLAIN with LDAP authentication for the external Kafka listeners.
    • [8] Required for the SASL/PLAIN with LDAP authentication for the custom Kafka listeners.
    • [7] [8] To configure authentication type ldap on external or custom listeners, you do not need to specify jaasConfig or jaasConfigPassThrough.

  2. Configure the identity provider in the Kafka CR:

    kind: Kafka
spec:
  identityProvider:                --- [1]
    type: ldap                     --- [2]
    ldap:                          --- [3]
      address:                     --- [4]
      authentication:              --- [5]
        type:                      --- [6]
        simple:                    --- [7]
      tls:
        enabled:                   --- [8]
      configurations:              --- [9]

    • [1] Required for the Kafka authentication type ldap. Specifies the identity provider configuration.

      When the MDS is enabled, this property is ignored, and the LDAP configuration in spec.services.mds.provider is used.

    • [2] Required.

    • [3] This block includes the same properties used in the spec.services.mds.provider.ldap block in this Kafka CR.

    • [4] Required. The address of the LDAP server, for example, ldaps://ldap.confluent.svc.cluster.local:636.

    • [5] Required. The authentication method to access the LDAP server.

    • [6] Required. Specify simple or mtls.

    • [7] Required if the authentication type ([6]) is set to simple.

    • [8] Required if the authentication type ([6]) is set to mtls. Set to true.

    • [9] Required. The LDAP configuration settings.

  3. Apply the configuration:

    kubectl apply -f <Kafka CR>

Client-side SASL/PLAIN with LDAP for Kafka

When Kafka is configured with SASL/PLAIN with LDAP, Confluent components and clients authenticate to Kafka as SASL/PLAIN clients. The clients must authenticate as users in LDAP.

See Client-side SASL/PLAIN authentication for Kafka for configuration details.

mTLS authentication

Server-side mTLS authentication for Kafka

mTLS utilizes TLS certificates as an authentication mechanism. The certificate provides the identity.

The certificate Common Name (CN) is used as the authenticated principal, which can then be used in authorization.

Configure a Kafka listener as below, in the Kafka CR, to use mTLS as the authentication mechanism:

kind: Kafka
spec:
  listeners:
    external:
      authentication:
        type: mtls                                     --- [1]
        principalMappingRules:
        - RULE:.*CN[\\s]?=[\\s]?([a-zA-Z0-9.]*)?.*/$1/ --- [2]
      tls:
        enabled: true                                  --- [3]

  • [1] Required. Set to mTLS.

  • [2] Optional. This specifies a mapping rule that extracts the principal name from the certificate Common Name (CN).

    The regular expression (regex) used in the mapping rule is Java mapping API.

    Shorthand character classes need to be escaped with another backslash. For example, to use a whitespace (\s), specify \\s.

  • [3] Required for mTLS authentication. Set to true.

Client-side mTLS authentication for Kafka

For each of the Confluent components that communicates with Kafka, configure the mTLS authentication mechanism in the component CR as below:

kind: <Confluent component>
spec:
  dependencies:
    kafka:
      authentication:
        type: mtls               --- [1]
      tls:
        enabled: true            --- [2]
  • [1] Required. Set to mtls.
  • [2] Required for mTLS authentication. Set to true.

OAuth/OIDC authentication

Open Authentication (OAuth) 2.0 is an open-standard authorization protocol that provides applications the ability for securely designated access. You can leverage your own identity provider and centralize identity management across your Confluent Platform and other service deployments on the cloud and on-premises.

Starting with CFK 2.9 and Confluent Platform 7.7, you can configure Confluent components with OAuth/OIDC, an OAuth-based authentication mechanism.

For the OAuth overview in Confluent Platform, see OAuth 2.0 for Confluent Platform.

Server-side OAuth/OIDC authentication for Kafka and KRaft

Configure a Kafka listener as below in the Kafka CR to use OAuth/OIDC as the authentication mechanism. For the kraftController CR, the authentication object is under spec.listeners.controller.

kind: Kafka
spec:
  listeners:
    internal / external:
      authentication:
        type: oauth                       --- [1]
        jaasConfig/jaasConfigPassThrough:
          secretRef:                      --- [2]
        oauthSettings:
          groupsClaimName:                --- [3]
          subClaimName:                   --- [4]
          audience:                       --- [5]
          expectedIssuer:                 --- [6]
          jwksEndpointUri:                --- [7]
          tokenEndpointUri:               --- [8]
          scope:                          --- [9]
          loginConnectTimeoutMs:          --- [10]
          loginReadTimeoutMs:             --- [11]
          loginRetryBackoffMs:            --- [12]
          loginRetryMaxBackoffMs:         --- [13]

  • [1] Required. Set to oauth.

  • [2] The secret that contains a OIDC client ID and the client secret for authorization and token request to the identity provider (IdP).

    Create the secret that contains two keys with their respective values, clientId and clientSecret as following:

    clientId=<client-id>
clientSecret=<client-secret>

  • [3] Required. The name of the claim in token for identifying the groups of subject in the JSON Web Tokens (JWT). The default value is groups.

  • [4] The subject name of the JWT (session token). The default value is sub. Used in SSO.

  • [5] Required. The audience claim in the JWT payload.

  • [6] The issuer URL, which is typically the authorization server’s URL. This value is used to compare to the issuer claim in the JWT for verification.

  • [7] The JSON Web Key Set (JWKS) URI. It is used to verify any JWT issued by the IdP.

  • [8] The base endpoint URI for the authorize that initiates an OAuth authorization request.

  • [9] Required only when your identity provider does not have a default scope or your groups claim is linked to a scope.

  • [10] Connect timeout with IdP in ms.

  • [11] Read timeout with IdP in ms.

  • [12] Retry backoff with IdP in ms.

  • [13] Max retry backoff with IdP in ms

Connect to IdP with self-signed certificates

The current set of SSL properties in Kafka listeners does not let you connect to your IdP with self signed certificates. You will receive an error in the Kafka pod:

[2024-04-17 13:33:53,712] ERROR Exiting Kafka due to fatal exception during startup. (kafka.Kafka$)
org.apache.kafka.common.KafkaException: org.apache.kafka.common.KafkaException:
The OAuth validator configuration encountered an error when initializing the VerificationKeyResolver

Use one of the following workaround options:

  • Specify a custom trust store through JVM arguments in the spec.configOverrides.jvm section of the Kafka custom resource:

    kind: Kafka
spec:
  configOverrides:
    jvm:
      - "-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStoreType=JKS"
      - "-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore=/mnt/jvmtruststore/truststore.jks"
      - "-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword=mystorepassword"

  • Add the trust store to the Kafka listeners as JAAS config, using the parameter unsecuredLoginStringClaim_sub="thePrincipalName".

    kind: Kafka
spec:
  configOverrides:
    server:
      - listener.name.controller.oauthbearer.sasl.jaas.config=org.apache.kafka.common.security.oauthbearer.OAuthBearerLoginModule required clientId="${file:/mnt/secrets/oauth-jass/oauth.txt:clientId}" clientSecret="${file:/mnt/secrets/oauth-jass/oauth.txt:clientSecret}" refresh_ms="3000" ssl.truststore.location="/mnt/sslcerts/truststore.jks" ssl.truststore.password="mystorepassword" unsecuredLoginStringClaim_sub="thePrincipalName";

    Alternatively, you can use a secret to pass the JAAS config passthrough information as described in Create server-side SASL/PLAIN credentials using JAAS config pass-through.

Client-side OAuth/OIDC authentication for Kafka and KRaft

For each of the Confluent components that communicates with Kafka or KRaft, configure the OAuth/OIDC authentication mechanism in the component CR as below. For KRaft, the authentication object is under dependencies.kRaftController.controllerListener.authentication.

kind: <Confluent component>
spec:
  dependencies:
    kafka:
      authentication:
        type: oauth                       --- [1]
        jaasConfig/jaasConfigPassThrough:
          secretRef:                      --- [2]
        oauthSettings:
          tokenEndpointUri:               --- [3]

  • [1] Required. Set to oauth.

  • [2] The secret that contains a OIDC client ID and the client secret for authorization and token request to IdP.

    Create the secret that contains two keys with their respective values, clientId and clientSecret as following:

    clientId=<client-id>
clientSecret=<client-secret>

  • [3] The base endpoint URI for the authorize that initiates an OAuth authorization request.

For the full list of the OAuth settings, see OAuth configuration.

Configure authentication to access MDS

Starting with CFK 2.9 and Confluent Platform 7.7, you can use the OAuth authentication with RBAC in addition to the LDAP-based bearer authentication.

  • Bearer authentication: You use the bearer token issued by MDS.
  • OAuth/OIDC authentication: You use the token, provided by your own identity provider and accepted by MDS.

When RBAC is enabled (spec.authorization.type: rbac), CFK uses the Bearer or OAuth authentication for Confluent components, ignoring the spec.authentication setting. It is not possible to set the component authentication type to mTLS when RBAC is enabled.

Bearer authentication

Create client-side Bearer credentials for MDS

Provide the required Bearer credentials.

The expected key is bearer.txt.

  1. Create a .txt file with the expected value in the following format:

    username=<username>
password=<password>

  2. You can use a Kubernetes secret or a directory path in the container to store the bearer credentials.

    • Create a Kubernetes secret using the expected key (bearer.txt) and the value.

      For example, using the ./c3-mds-client.txt file that you create for Control Center credentials:

      kubectl create secret generic c3-mds-client \
  --from-file=bearer.txt=./c3-mds-client.txt \
  --namespace confluent

    • Use a directory path in the container to provide the required credentials.

      See Provide secrets for Confluent Platform component CR for providing the credential and required annotations when using Vault.

      See CFK GitHub examples for more information on using the directoryPathInContainer property with Vault.

Client-side Bearer authentication for MDS

For each of the Confluent components that communicate with MDS, configure bearer authentication mechanism in the component CR:

kind: <Confluent component>
spec:
  dependencies:
    mds:
      authentication:
        type: bearer               --- [1]
        bearer:
          secretRef:               --- [2]
          directoryPathInContainer --- [3]
  • [1] Required. Set to bearer.
  • [2] or [3] Required. Do not specify both.
  • [2] To load username and secret, set to the Kubernetes secret you created in the previous section.
  • [3] Provide the path in the container in the previous section. The expected file, bearer.txt, must exist in the specified directory path.

OAuth/OIDC authentication

Server-side OAuth/OIDC authentication for MDS

Configure the MDS as below in the Kafka CR to use OAuth/OIDC as the authentication mechanism:

kind: Kafka
spec:
  services:
    mds:

  • [1] Required only when enabling SSO. The secret that contains a OIDC client ID and the client secret for authorization and token request to IdP.

    Create the secret that contains two keys with their respective values, clientId and clientSecret as following:

    clientId=<client-id>
clientSecret=<client-secret>

  • [2] Groups in JSON Web Tokens (JWT). The default value is groups.

    JWT is issued by Confluent (MDS) to maintain the session. This contains information passed by IdP in id token along with custom claims (if any) added by the MDS.

  • [3] The subject name of the JWT. The default value is sub.

  • [4] The issuer URL, which is typically the authorization server’s URL. This value is used to compare to the issuer claim in the JWT for verification.

  • [5] The JSON Web Key Set (JWKS) URI. It is used to verify any JWT issued by the IdP.

Client-side OAuth/OIDC authentication for MDS

For each of the Confluent components that communicate with MDS, configure OAuth/OIDC authentication mechanism in the component CR:

kind: <Confluent component>
spec:
  dependencies:
    mds:
      authentication:
        type: oauth                --- [1]
        oauth:
          secretRef:               --- [2a]
          directoryPathInContainer --- [2b]
          configuration:
            tokenEndpointUri:      --- [3]

  • [1] Required. Set to oauth.

  • [2a] or [2b] Specify only one setting.

  • [2a] The secret that contains the OIDC client ID and the client secret for authorization and token request to the identity provider.

    Create the secret that contains two keys with their respective values, clientId and clientSecret as following:

    clientId=<client-id>
clientSecret=<client-secret>

  • [2b] The OIDC client ID and the client secret for authorization and token request to the identity provider (IdP).

    See Provide secrets for Confluent Platform component CR for providing the credential and required annotations when using Vault.

  • [3] The base endpoint URI for the authorize that initiates an OAuth authorization request.
