How do I authenticate to an external API?

Confluence User - 19 Jul, 2025

The external RESTful APIs I am trying to use require authentication. Is there a plugin to authenticate via oauth2 or other mechanism? Will DX 8 cache the token and automatically request a renewal when the token expires? Or can this be done via the JSON Tool?

plugins;json

Check out https://github.com/jogetoss/enhanced-json-tool/tree/main it seems like it has token handling.
