Auth with the plugin

Hello,

 

I’m looking to build a plugin for Front. 

The concern I have is about security. The recommended pattern to use token verification is embed the “secret” in the search param rather than a header.
Is there a way to embed the token in the header of the request instead so that it’s not obvious from the url?

    Hi,

    That’s not something we can support at present, but feel free to share this as a feature suggestion via our Product Ideas Portal

    Is there anything specific about this approach you’re concerned about? As a general recommendation, we advise putting any sensitive content rendered in your plugin behind a login in order to protect your data.
