Enable OAuth Bearer Token Authentication for listeners

This article covers using Kafka ACLs with a third-party identity provider through OAuth 2.0 Bearer Token based authentication. Streaming Data Manager supports OAuth Bearer Token authentication for both external listeners and internal listeners.

The exact procedure depends on your Apache Kafka version.

• If you are using Streaming Data Manager with Apache Kafka version 3.1.0 or newer, see OAuth Bearer Token Authentication for listeners (Apache Kafka 3.1.0 and above).
• If you are using Streaming Data Manager with Apache Kafka version pre 3.1.0 or earlier, see OAuth Bearer Token Authentication for listeners (Apache Kafka pre 3.1.0).
