Create Clients (Applications)
In order to start secure your applications you must define them to PlusAuth by creating a Client. A client can be any application that has access to network. It could be a web application, mobile application, desktop application, IoT device, an API (backend application) etc.
Social Connections
Social connections refer to the integration with social media platforms and identity providers (IdPs) to enable users to authenticate and access resources using their social media credentials. This integration allows users to sign in to applications and services using their existing social media accounts, such as Facebook, Google, Twitter, or LinkedIn, etc. instead of creating separate accounts for each service.
