Quick-reference for auth. Read before accessing secured content. 1. Location services only? → esriConfig.apiKey from API key credentials (env keeps it out of git, NOT out of the bundle: set referrer restrictions, minimum privileges, an expiration). 2. Private org content / secured edits? → OAuth2 (OAuthInfo + IdentityManager). 3. App-level (not per-user)? → server-side token; never ship secrets.

Agent Guide: arcgis-authentication

Quick-reference for auth. Read before accessing secured content.

Quick Decision Tree

  1. Location services only? → esriConfig.apiKey from API key credentials (env keeps it out of git, NOT out of the bundle: set referrer restrictions, minimum privileges, an expiration).
  2. Private org content / secured edits? → OAuth2 (OAuthInfo + IdentityManager).
  3. App-level (not per-user)? → server-side token; never ship secrets.

Setup Checklist

  • API key from import.meta.env, never hardcoded.
  • registerOAuthInfos BEFORE the first secured request.
  • appId is public; no client secret in the browser.
  • Handle token expiry / re-auth; keys last up to a year: rotate with key 1 / key 2.
  • Legacy AAPK… keys were retired on 2026-06-27 ("Invalid Token"): migrate to API key credentials.

Anti-patterns (one-liner reminders)

  • ❌ Hardcoded API key.
  • ❌ Client secret in browser code.
  • ❌ Registering OAuth after a secured request: the SDK opens its username/password dialog instead.
  • ❌ Believing VITE_ hides the key: it is in the shipped JavaScript.
  • ❌ flowType: "implicit" on a modern portal: leave the default "auto" (PKCE).
