auth

The authentication service and parameters. For example:

{
    "auth": {
        "service": "appmixer:google",
        "scope": [
            "https://mail.google.com/",
            "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.compose",
            "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.send"
        ]
    }
}

The auth.service identifies the authentication module that will be used to authenticate the user to the service that the component uses. It must have the following format: [vendor]:[service]. The Appmixer engine looks up the auth.js file under that vendor and service category. auth.scope provides additional parameters to the authentication module. See the Authentication section for more details.

When auth is defined, the component will have a section in the Designer UI inspector requiring the user to select from existing accounts or connect a new account. Only after an account is selected the user can continue configuring other properties of the component.
