Account authentication can be configured in the AWX User Interface and saved to the PostgreSQL database. For instructions, refer to the :ref:`ag_configure_awx` section.
Account authentication in AWX can be configured to centrally use OAuth2, while enterprise-level account authentication can be configured for SAML, RADIUS, or even LDAP as a source for authentication information. See :ref:`ag_ent_auth`.
Account authentication in AWX can be configured to centrally use OAuth2, while enterprise-level account authentication can be configured for :ref:`Azure <ag_auth_azure>`, :ref:`RADIUS <ag_auth_radius>`, :ref:`SAML <ag_auth_saml>`, or even :ref:`LDAP <ag_auth_ldap>` as a source for authentication information. See :ref:`ag_ent_auth` for more detail.
For websites, such as Microsoft Azure, Google or GitHub, that provide account information, account information is often implemented using the OAuth standard. OAuth is a secure authorization protocol which is commonly used in conjunction with account authentication to grant 3rd party applications a "session token" allowing them to make API calls to providers on the users behalf.
SAML (Security Assertion Markup Language) is an XML-based, open-standard data format for exchanging account authentication and authorization data between an identity provider and a service provider.
