   # Summary
   
   [NIFI-13232](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-13232) Adds a new 
REST API method for returning authentication configuration details.
   
   The purpose of the new method is to provide sufficient details for the user 
interface to determine when to show the login screen and when to show the 
logout link.
   
   The REST API method is designed to support current authentication 
strategies, including username and password authentication with a Login 
Identity Provider, as well as single sign-on with either OIDC or SAML. The 
method should also return correct status when the client makes a request using 
mutual TLS with a client certificate. The mutual TLS scenario may require an 
additional field because when NiFi is running behind a reverse proxy, the proxy 
itself will provide a client certificate, but the client web browser should be 
presented with a login screen or be redirected for single sign-on.
   
   Changes include adding a `credentials` property to the authentication token 
class, providing access to the JSON Web Token or Client Certificates passed 
during the initial authentication process.
