How to apply oauth authentication with appian webapi?

Answer 1

all you need to do is add the service account on which you created the Oauth credentials to the application groups in appian application designer

Answer 2

All the WebAPIs in Appian are already secured with Authorization. There is no additional step needed.

The reason you are able to access it without OAuth is probably because, in the browser, you are already logged in with your own account.
