Thanks Ayumu. Hence the only authentication method for Tacker server should be using OAUTH2 token. Is this right?

Is it possible to use username/password for authentication of Tacker REST API calls? No, it is not able to use username/password for authentication of Tacker REST API calls.
You may have seen the following configurations, https://docs.openstack.org/tacker/latest/configuration/config.html#authentic... https://docs.openstack.org/tacker/latest/configuration/config.html#authentic... https://docs.openstack.org/tacker/latest/configuration/config.html#authentic... but the configuration above is not the configuration that Tacker as server. This is the authentication configuration that Tacker uses for the external connection as the client as described in the description.

In the tacker.conf, I see both BASIC and OAUTH2 methods for authentication. If I set the auth_type to BASIC and configure the user_name and password values, will I be able to make the REST calls with these username and password? Thanks and regards, Ravichandran
