You can create {hcp-title-first} clusters that use external authentication to issue your access tokens.

You can create {hcp-title-first} clusters that use an external OpenID Connect (OIDC) identity provider to issue tokens for authentication, replacing the built-in OpenShift OAuth server. While the built-in OpenShift OAuth server supports integration with a variety of identity providers, including external OIDC identity providers, it is limited to the capabilities of the OAuth server itself. You can directly integrate external OIDC identity providers with {hcp-title} clusters in order to facilitate machine-to-machine workflows, such as CLI, and provide additional capabilities which are not available when using the built-in OpenShift OAuth server.
