A new setup parameter has been created to store one or more URLs that should pass through the authentication logic. The AuthenticateRequest service has been updated to verify if the URL requires authentication. If not, the current URL request is marked as authenticated so it can continue to be processed by the end point API.

This feature is helpful when OAuth-type requests need to be supported. OAuth relies upon communication between trusted servers, away from client-side web and mobile applications. This is part of the security mechanism of OAuth. Generally, these URLs cannot be configured to support server-side authentication so these need to be allowed through without authentication.
