Authentication
Authentication in the Sitecore XC solution is based on tokens or on specific authenticated identities. Security is enforced at the controller level, and is based on a token or on a user's Sitecore credentials. Every user or application must be authenticated to call any controller from the Commerce Engine.
Sitecore Identity provides authentication service using bearer token authentication.
