Can't find REST API about auth.

[wn092943]

hi,
I find the auth REST API in https://eclipse-che.readme.io/docs/rest-api. However, when I visit http://localhost:8080/swagger/, I can't find auth item.
The version of Che is 4.3.4.
In addition, I don‘t understand the content of https://eclipse-che.readme.io/docs/authentication,can you give me some advice or more docs about authentication management?

How to achieve user management? For example, showing specific workspaces based on which account was logined, like visiting http://beta.codenvy.com/. I find REST API in http://beta.codenvy.com/swagger are much more than http://localhost:8080/swagger/.Where can I read relevant sources about these services?

Hi: we have a lot of core engineers on holiday so give us a little bit and we will get a response soon.

@wn092943 - The authentication API is part of Codenvy, but not currently part of Che. It was previously in the 3.x generation of Che to provide certain types of in-workspace authentication. So this is a documentation error.

We will remove it out of the documentation of Che and put it into the Codenvy documentation to make the separation clearer.

A little bit later this year, we will release a new version of Che that has a lightweight built-in authentication & user management mechanism. We get this request frequently.
