I'm building an app on top of Data Fusion API and I'd like Data Fusion to handle authentication.

Your app needs to accept a POST request with the following params:
username- username of logged in userroles- users role(s)access_token- token for API requests
Login Example
Example callback URL: http://myapp.com/loginCallback
Directing the user to the following URL will POST to the callback URL after login. The callback param must be encoded.
/datafusion/login/auth?callback=http%3A%2F%2Fmyapp.com%2FloginCallback
Logout Example
A callback url is also supported for logout. The user will be directed to the callback URL after logout. The callback param must be encoded.
Example callback URL: http://myapp.com/logoutCallback
/datafusion/j_spring_security_logout?callback=http%3A%2F%2Fmyapp.com%2FlogoutCallback
Example
- User navigates to http://example.com/explorer
- DE sees user is not authenticated. Redirects to http://example.com/datafusion/login/auth?callback=http%3A%2F%2Fexample.com%2Fexplorer%2Flogin%2FauthCallback
- DF presents the login form
- User logs in
- DF posts the login info to the callback URL provided in 2.
- DE logs in the user, redirects to http://example.com/explorer
