Should I Use API Keys Or OAuth For Python REST API Calls? Are you curious about how to securely connect your Python scripts to web services? In this video, we’ll compare two common methods of authentication: API keys and OAuth. We’ll explain what each method does and discuss when to use one over the other. You’ll learn the simplicity of API keys, their ease of setup, and their limitations in terms of security and access control. We’ll also cover OAuth 2.0, highlighting its advanced security features, such as limited permissions through scopes and token expiration. We’ll guide you through the setup process for OAuth, including creating OAuth clients and managing tokens with popular libraries like oauthlib or requests-oauthlib. Whether you’re working on internal automation or building applications for third parties, understanding these authentication methods is essential for protecting your data and ensuring smooth operation. We’ll also share best practices, such as always using HTTPS to encrypt data and avoiding less secure options like basic authentication with username and password in production environments. This video is perfect for developers looking to improve security in their Python projects and for those who want a clear comparison of these two authentication strategies.
