# New: Embedded Client Authentication

{% hint style="info" %}
Available on [**Interact** ](https://www.clickatell.com/products/interact/)and [**Transact** ](https://www.clickatell.com/transact/)packages.
{% endhint %}

We launched a new product that allows you to configure OpenID Connect in your Clickatell account and authenticate your end-users securely against your chosen identity provider so that they can access secure services specific to them from your internal platforms.

This feature is now available to all our clients, free of charge, from within the Clickatell Portal. 

Currently, Embedded Client Authentication is supported on Chat Flow via the WhatsApp channel.

All the IDPs you've set up in the [Clickatell Portal](https://clickatell.gitbook.io/embedded-client-authentication-user-guide/configure-and-update-an-identity-provider-idp) will dynamically pull through to your Chat Flow application. When setting up the [OAuth node](https://clickatell.gitbook.io/flow/user-facing-nodes/input-nodes/oauth-request) in Chat Flow, you'll be able to select from your IDPs the one you want to link to the node.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://guides.clickatell.com/release-notes/release-notes-archive/2022-release-notes/q3-2022/new-embedded-client-authentication.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
