SECURELY Accessing a 3rd Party API

App Development
#1

Hello!

I’m working with my company to make my app more useful by accessing an API that hold user information. The major concern for the CEO of my company is security.

How do I make sure that I’m accessing the API in a way that won’t compromise any sensitive or private data?

Thanks for all the help!

You can use various authentication methods for accessing an API and your app only has access to whatever the API provides

So it’s really more on the API for what data is it giving the app?

And once given that data, if it’s private information it should be stored in keychain, or not stored at all
