Is it possible to use Tyk Dashboard Portal Developers API to authorize users?

Tyk Dashboard exposes Portal Developer information including its hashed password and issued API Keys

I would like to use Tyk Dashboard as user management system while providing web-portal with sandbox to play and setup our APIs which are behind Tyk.

APIs are configured to use Bearer Authorization and optional cookie to pass API Key issued via Tyk Developer portal

I want to setup that cookie for a user logged in our sandbox to provide access to APIs behind Tyk Gateway

Could you please share details on how to validate given plaintext password against hashed value stored in Tyk Dashboard Portal Developer Object?

Couldn’t find that in documentation.

I believe this is an answer to all your questions

https://tyk.io/docs/publish/customise/custom-developer-portal/

Especially “Login workflow: Checking User Credentials” section.
